- when serving take 1 of the loaves of bread and slice off the top ¼ then proceed to dig out the inside of the loaf of bread to create a bowl. being careful not to remove too much bread and leave a hole.
- slice the other loaf into cubes for dipping.
- place the bread bowl in the middle of a large serving platter and fill with the chilled spinach dip. surround the bread bowl with pieces of bread from the other loaf and serve.

Notes
if you are making this for personal use making the bread bowl might be a bit much and a waste of bread. I like to keep the dip in the fridge and use crackers or small pieces of bread for myself. making the bread bowl is great for parties and to impress your guests.
