Ingredients
- 10 ounces frozen chopped spinach 1 package, thawed
- 8 ounces water chestnuts canned, drained
- 2 cups sour cream or Greek yogurt
- 1 cup mayonnaise or dressing, low fat or regular
- 1 package dry vegetable soup mix 1.4 ounces
- 3 green onions chopped
- 1 loaf round sourdough bread optional
Instructions
- Thaw 10 ounces of frozen chopped spinach. Squeeze the thawed spinach or place it in a fine mesh strainer and press with a spoon to remove as much liquid as possible.
- Drain the water chestnuts and finely chop.
- In a medium bowl, combine spinach, water chestnuts, sour cream, mayonnaise, dry vegetable soup mix, and green onions. Stir until well combined.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to 24 hours before serving.
- To make a bread bowl, cut 1-inch off the top of a loaf of sourdough bread and use a serrated knife to remove the center, leaving a 1-inch thick bread bowl.
- Fill the bread bowl with the spinach dip just before serving. Cut both the top and center of the bread into 1-inch cubes for dipping.
Notes
- To thaw spinach - Let the frozen spinach sit in the fridge overnight or thaw it quickly in the microwave. If using the microwave, place the spinach in a bowl and cook for 90 seconds on high. Then, break it up and continue cooking it in 30-second increments until it's fully thawed.
- Fresh spinach - To replace frozen spinach with fresh, remove the stems from 1 pound of fresh spinach. Place it in a large non-stick skillet with 1 tablespoon of water and cook over medium until the spinach is wilted, about 4 minutes. Cool, chop, and squeeze dry.
- Serving - Spinach dip can be served in a serving bowl with crackers, tortilla chips, or crostini.
- For individual servings, use small dinner rolls and hollow them out for mini spinach dip bowls.
- Storage - Keep leftover spinach dip in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
