Here is mine:

Spicy Spinach and Artichoke Dip

1/2 cup butter
1 med onion
2 (10 oz) packages frozen chopped spinach (thawed and well drained)
1 (14 oz) can artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
1 (8 oz) package cream cheese
1 (8 oz) carton sour cream
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese, divided
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
2 tbs Tabasco sauce (this is optional)
salt to taste
toasted pita bead wedges
1 med tomato, chopped

Melt butter in a large saucepan or skillet over med heat. Add onion and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in spinach, artichokes, cream cheese, sour cream, 3/4 cup of the Montery Jack cheese, 3/4 cup of the Parmesan cheese, Tabasco, and salt. Stir until well blended and heated.
Pour mixture into a 1 1/2 quart casserole dish and top with remaining 1/4 cup Monterey Jack and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese. Bake in a 350 deg oven until cheese starts to brown, about 10 minutes. Serve with pita bread and garnish with tomatoes.

I make this every christmas. It's very good.
