FRESH SPINACH & ARTICHOKE DIP (AKA SHEEP DIP)
Adapted from Best of the Best from Colorado, this recipe is so named, according to their description, because the recipe poster's father was a sheep rancher. This is supposedly a best selling recipe on the menu at River City Cafe in Colorado. I have not tried this yet, but since any spinach dip calling for fresh spinach appeals to me, I wanted to share it. This is very different from the usual spinach dips. I have never seen another version quite like this one. I am guessing at the cook time, which I will update once I try this. This makes enough dip for your whole herd! ;). To me, this is perfect football party food!

SHEEP DIP (SHEEP DIP!)
This is from Ireland. Now I'm not sure when Ireland started making feta and ricotta cheeses but it's intro reads: "Cheeses made from sheep's milk are quite popular in Ireland, and this tasty concoction uses two - feta and ricotta. Whether your feta and ricotta come from the milk of sheep, cows, or goats, the mixture will be delicious."

Steps:
- 1. Drain your Oysters. Please make sure you get the Smoked cooked ones, not raw !Drain well. Set these aside. Peel you Avocado,remove your pit. Cut Avocado in 1/2 and slice up into bits for mashing.(save pit if you like plants,you can grow a tree from it...) Add your sour cream and tablespoon of Lipton's.(Lipton's can be adjusted to taste. Be careful not to overpower Oysters and avocado) You can now blend with beaters or by hand til well mixed. Dice your onions (whole or in part depending how strong it is. I usually do 1/2 then adjust to taste as I go along) into 1/4 to 1/2 rings then 1/2 the rings then dice into pieces and blend into sour cream. Now you can beat in your oysters. Add black pepper to taste and refrigerate overnite for flavors to marinate. Serve cold and with anything that dips... 8 - 10. Double recipe if needed. 10
- 2. As for your Avocado pit. Clean it up, get a glass of water fill it 3/4 full. Take 3 rounded,sturdy toothpicks insert evenly 1/2 way(middle) and put her in the glass (bottom 1/2 of pit should be in water) and watch her begin a new life in the next 6 weeks. When about 6 inches tall from the top and well est roots, plant in a good sized planter and keep in a sunny location and enjoy !
