Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Sauté the minced garlic for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until wilted. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Using paper towels or a clean kitchen towel, squeeze out any excess liquid from the cooked spinach. Chop the spinach finely and set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the low-fat cream cheese and Greek yogurt. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, onion powder, salt, and black pepper until fully incorporated.
Add the chopped spinach to the mixture and stir to combine evenly.
Transfer the mixture to a small, oven-safe dish and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 10 minutes, or until the dip is warmed through and slightly bubbly around the edges.
Remove from the oven and let the dip cool for a few minutes before serving. Pair it with fresh vegetables, whole-grain crackers, or pita chips for a healthy and satisfying snack.
