Baked Spinach Dip in Sourdough Bread (From Jujuskitchen) image

My duaghter prepared this dip for Easter and it was a huge hit! You can use low-fat cream cheese, mayonnaise, 2% cheddar cheese and low salt bacon, if watching fat and salt. Although the original recipe (from jujuskitchen) calls for bacon, it tastes great without it.
