CHRISTMAS TREE SPINACH DIP BREADSTICKS
As you know, on holidays (after something meaningful like family or unity) my favorite part is food. In fact, one day my favorite part might be food, but hey, each one. The Christmas season is especially fun. Because there are many delicious snacks that you don't eat all year round.
Ingredients
