COLD SPINACH DIP

This is one of the first recipes I ever created, so it's only appropriate that it should be the first one I post! It's a great cold treat, and very easy to make! Most other recipes I've seen call for mayo or Miracle Whip instead of the cream cheese. I'm not a big fan of "heart-healthy" recipes, but this could easily be made with low/no-fat sour cream and cream cheese. The water chestnuts are optional, but I think it adds to the texture!

Time 4h

Yield 2 cups, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 (8 ounce) container sour cream
1 small onion, chopped (optional)
0.5 (6 ounce) can water chestnuts, drained and chopped (optional)
0.5 (1 ounce) packet dip mix (I used Knorr's, but can't find it anymore, so I use the Lipton Garlic & Herb now)

Steps:

  • If using onions, I lightly saute them in a little butter or olive oil to soften.
  • Mix soup/dip mix into softened cream cheese and then add sour cream. (Make sure the cream cheese is very soft, otherwise you will have lumps.).
  • Add onion, water chestnuts and spinach and mix together thoroughly.
  • Refrigerate at least 4 hours. (If you can make this a day or so in advance, the flavors will have time to set well!).
  • Prep time includes refrigeration and servings are a guess!
  • I serve it with my favorite crackers (Triscuits) or toasted bread slices.

COLD SPINACH DIP

I found this recipe on a box of Mrs. Grass Recipe, Soup & Dip Mix, made by Wyler's. I like to add artichokes to fit my liking. I like cold and hot spinach dip. This recipe is meant to be cold but it could probably be good served warm too, heat in the oven till bubbly.

This recipe is my take on the original Knorr Spinach Dip recipe. It can be served with vegetable sticks, crackers or my favorite... toasted Demi Asiago Cheese Bread from Panera Bread.

  • Chill the dip before serving: This will help the flavors to meld and the dip to thicken up.
  • Serve the dip with a variety of dippers: Some popular dippers for spinach dip include tortilla chips, crackers, bread, and vegetables.
