This spinach dip recipe is one of the best cold spinach dips I have tried.
It is a little different than the traditional Knorr spinach dip. Look here for the original Knorr spinach dip recipe.
This dip recipe uses sour cream and cream cheese to bring that creamy taste. Plus you add in some ranch dressing.
If you don’t want to use the packaged ranch dressing, use the full ranch dressing. You will need to compensate for the extra liquid by using just a bit less sour cream. Or just enjoy it a bit thinner in consistency.
Using frozen spinach, it’s a cinch to make any time.
This easy dip can be served in a hollowed out round loaf of bread, like the Knorr dip.
Use the broken up bread pieces for dipping. Add raw vegetables and crackers as extra dippers. Or just go straight for the crackers, tortilla chips and veggies.
Spinach dip is an easy dip recipe that almost everyone seems to love, so it’s always a hit at any get together.
I hope you enjoy this recipe for cold spinach dip.
