Yoghurt and Spinach Dressing/Dip

Terese's Note:

I had dinner at my Persian friends a few nights and ago and he made this gorgeous dressing to go with lamb kebabs. I have since made it to with grilled chicken. It is very versatile and especially great with Greek, Moroccan or Middle Eastern dishes and very easy and quick to make. Make sure you use a good quality natural Greek yoghurt. Also great to use just a dip.
