Instructions

Cook the spinach so it has time to cool.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.
Transfer the cooked spinach to a small container and refrigerate to cool.
Prepare the tortilla chips by cutting shamrock shapes from the tortillas.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Place the cut shamrocks on a lined baking sheet, brush with oil or melted butter, and sprinkle with salt.
Bake for 5-8 minutes, until golden on the edges.
Spritz lime juice on warm tortilla chips if desired.
In a bowl, mix the remaining oil, cooled spinach, cream cheese, yogurt, garlic, basil, salt, and pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Notes

Feel free to use frozen spinach if fresh is unavailable; just make sure to thaw and drain it well.
Customize the dip by adding some shredded cheese or other herbs for an extra flavor boost.
