Food is the centerpiece of all holidays in the South, but never more so than at Christmas. For our home, the feast tends to be more of a “grazing” affair than a huge sit-down dinner.

Spinach artichoke dip©tama fortner We were doing charcuterie boards long before they were trendy—though ours tend to be clustered in crystal bowls and plates handed down from grandmothers and greatgrandmothers, rather than spread out across a wooden board (And, yes, I use all the family heirlooms. Seeing all those little dishes brings back sweet memories of Christmases past).

We fill them with pickles and sausages and crackers and everyone’s favorite things.

One of those favorite things is this simple for a Spinach and Artichoke Dip. It tosses together so quicky and easily with just a few ingredients, yet tastes far more elegant than the efforts would imply. Warm and savory and just right for wintery celebrations. I hope you enjoy it too.

May you have the merriest of Christmases this year!
