- 10 oz Frozen chopped spinach, cooked, cooled and squeezed dry
- 16 oz Sour cream or nonfat plain Greek yogurt
- 1 cup Light mayo
- 1.4 oz Package Knorr Vegetable recipe mix
- 8 oz Can of water chestnuts drained and chopped (optional)
- 3 Green onions chopped (optional)
Prep: Start by preparing the spinach, cook according to the package directions, let it cool completely and then squeeze it to remove the excess liquid. If you choose to add in the water chestnuts, drain the liquid and chop into small pieces. As well as the green onions, dice into small pieces to mix in well with the dip. Assemble dip: To make this dip simply take the spinach, sour cream, mayo, Knorr veggie packet, water chestnuts, and green onions (if using) and combine well in a large bowl until nice and creamy smooth.
Chill: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place it into the fridge for 2 or more hours before using it to help the dip thicken.
Serve: Divide the dip into small serving-sized cups (I bought mine from Dollar Tree) and add in a variety of fresh-cut mixed veggies like celery, carrots, and bell peppers. Serve veggie cups with dip immediately and enjoy!
The shelf life of veggie cups with spinach dip can vary depending on a few factors. If the dip is made with fresh ingredients, it can last up to 3 days in the refrigerator.
However, if the dip has been left out at room temperature for an extended period of time, it should be discarded after two hours to avoid any risk of foodborne illness.
