Spinach Dip

Does anyone have a good spinach dip recipe? Thanks in advance.

Hi, no recipe here, but I know how to make it. I don't measure stuff, so if anyone wnats to chime in with amounts of the ingredients, I'll let them. Just some opinions for you:

Dice the onion finely.
If you are using bread, don't use that awful Hawaiian sweet bread - yuck.
Use real mayo, not "salad dressing" or Miracle Whip
Use a nice sourdough boule if you're using bread.

I really have issue with someone adding gobs of sugar to spinach dip via miracle whip or that sweet Hawaiian bread. A mixture of spinach, mayo, onions, and cream cheese is not calling out for sugar IMO. Good Luck! I'd bet that most underlying components of the recipes you're gonna come across are going to be the same. Might be some twists like roasted red pepper, garlic, hot peppers, etc.

Like seebee, I don't measure, either. Last time I got the idea because I ran into this recipe from Cooking Light while surfing, got hungry, started whipping one up; I didn't use low-fat anything (I think I used queso chihuahua instead of mozz, I might have reduced-fat sour cream, tho.) Basically, just went to the fridge and started tossing the ingredients into a bowl, mixed them, when I liked the texture I baked it with parmesan on the top as well as mixed in. I might have sauteed my aromatics and vegetables first. Family was happy.

An ingredient that I like (to eat; I haven't made the stuff) is chopped water chestnuts. They give a nice little crunch.

Call me crazy, but I've always been a huge fan of the spinach dip recipe featured on the Knorr's vegetable soup packets at the grocery store. Here's the recipe. I always incorporate the water chestnuts and green onions (listed as optional ingredients).

If you're near Hinsdale around lunchtime, go to Kramer's Grocery in the Grant Square shopping center, just west of the Burlington station. They have a magnificant deli, and make the best sandwiches - for a moderate price - in the western suburbs.

For years, they have offered a great spinach dip in the deli.

It's the Knorr Vegetable soup mix recipe, as confided to us years ago by a deli employee.
