    LET SPINACH THAW OUT. SQUEEZE OUT & DRAIN. PUT ALL INGREDIENTS, EXCEPT TOMATOES & ONIONS & BACON, IN LARGE MICROWAVEABLE BOWL & HEAT ON HIGH IN MICROWAVE UNTIL ALL CHEESE IS MELTED. TAKES ABOUT 6-8 MINUTES. STIR EVERY 2 MINUTES TO KEEP IT FROM SCORCHING.

    ONE OPTION IS TO PLACE DIP IN A HOLLOWED OUT ROUND LOAF OF CRUSTY ITALIAN BREAD. CUT TOP OFF OF BREAD SO BOTTOM LOOKS MUCH LIKE A BOWL. USING HAND, SCOOP OUT BREAD INSIDE, LEAVING MOSTLY JUST CRUST. FILL WITH SPINACH DIP & SERVE THAT WAY. EAT THE BOWL AFTERWARDS.
