Every time I make this for something, everyone asks me for the recipe. And as I promised Rachel I’d get it to her before she goes off to the wilds of Honduras, here we go!
10 oz frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
16 oz sour cream
1 cup mayonnaise
1 package Knorr Vegetable recipe mix
(You can also add 8 oz of water chestnuts and 3 chopped green onions, but I never do.)
So, you mix it all together (they recommend chilling for 2 hours) and serve.
Most of the time I get home from work, hurriedly thaw the spinach in a bowl of hot water, throw it all together, and run to whatever activity/party I'm going to that evening. Also, I serve it with Sheepherder's Bread. I can always find it in the Smith's (Fred Meyer) bakery section. It's a big (like 8-10") loaf of this soft white bread. It has a softer crust than most French Bread but that same chewy inside. I LOVE that bread. I could eat an entire loaf myself. Anyway, I cut up the bread into cubes (usually while that darn spinach is thawing) and then everyone goes to town.
The hardest part of this recipe? Finding the Knorr Vegetable mix. That stuff is nearly impossible to find. I can find it at the SLC Walmart, but not at the Centerville Walmart. I've never found it at any Smith's, but I did find it at the Centerville Target, but not the SLC Target. It's weird. I did end up buying about 3 packages that are now permanently in my cupboard, just in case I ever want to make it and don't have time to run all over town trying to find the stuff.
The best part? This recipe is from the back of the Knorr package, if you can't remember how much of everything, all you need is a package of that mix and you'll be set. So, that's it, the best Spinach Dip you'll ever make!
