spinach~artichoke "dip" bread

i got the idea to make spinach artichoke dip from this recipe here.. it was shells idea to put it on hot crispy bread.. genius if i do say so myself.. it was so good.. i had left over cooked chicken which i added to the dip also and we had a nice little afternoon snack.. you can really do a lot with this little dip.. you could roll it up in chicken and bake it.. or the obvious just serve it all by it's self with crackers or crostini.. again i apologize for the photo my camera is still stuck on "taking bad photos mode" i will fix it this weekend.. but no matter the picture this was very tasty...
