Easy and Delicious Spinach Dip Recipe

So, your college level Rhetoric and Argumentation class is hosting a class party at the end of the semester...I know what you're thinking, "highly unlikely." Never rule out the possibility, but I digress. Perhaps, you have a cookout to go to and you're in charge of bringing the appetizer. This situation seems more plausible anyway. I have a recipe that will win you awards, but I have to give credit to Scott for this one too!


 Spinach Dip

  • 9 oz package of frozen spinach (drained)
  • 1 Knorr Vegetable pack
  • 1 cup mayo
  • about 13 oz sour cream or (3/4 of a 16 oz container)
  • 10 or so water chestnuts (diced)
  • circular piece of bread
  • 1 package of baby carrots
  • celery (cut into thirds)
In a large mixing bowl, combine, the spinach, vegetable pack, mayo, sour cream and water chestnuts. Mix until everything is incorporated and creamy. Refrigerate the mixture for at least two hours.

While the mixture is chilling, cut the top of the bread and dice up that piece into 1" chunks. Hollow out the bread, so it looks like a bowl. When the dip has chilled enough, spoon it into the bread bowl and arrange the bread chunks, baby carrots, and celery around the bowl on a pretty serving dish.

Scott showed me this recipe, but he uses a Hidden Valley Ranch packet instead of the Knorr Vegetable packet. You can use either one, but I prefer the Knorr packet because it not only has seasonings in it, but little pieces of vegetables too. I think it takes the spinach dip to another level. Seriously, you might just eat the whole thing before your friends get a chance to. Be careful, I've warned you!
