Dip Ingredients
- 16 ounce container sour cream
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 8 ounce can sliced water chestnuts, drained and chopped
- 2 scallions, thinly diced
- 1.4 ounce packet Knorr Vegetable Recipe Mix
- 10 ounce package frozen chopped spinach, cooked and well drained
To Serve
- Bread bowl
- Fresh vegetables (such as carrot sticks, celery, bell peppers, cucumber slices)
Instructions
- Cook the Spinach: Prepare the frozen chopped spinach according to the package directions, then drain thoroughly to remove all excess moisture, ensuring the dip is not watery.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add the sour cream, mayonnaise, chopped water chestnuts, diced scallions, and the Knorr Vegetable Recipe Mix. Stir the mixture until all ingredients are evenly combined.
- Mix in Spinach: Fold the cooked and drained chopped spinach into the sour cream mixture, distributing it evenly for consistent flavor throughout the dip.
- Chill the Dip: Cover the bowl tightly and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, allowing the flavors to meld and the dip to thicken.
- Serve: Transfer the chilled dip into a hollowed-out bread bowl and surround with fresh vegetable sticks for dipping. Enjoy immediately for best texture and flavor.
Notes
- Ensure the spinach is well drained to prevent the dip from becoming too watery.
- For extra crunch, water chestnuts can be finely chopped or left slightly chunky depending on preference.
- The dip can be prepared a day in advance to enhance flavor blending.
- If you prefer, substitute Greek yogurt for sour cream to reduce fat content.
- Use a sturdy bread bowl like sourdough or rye to hold the dip without leaking.
