Knorr Spinach Dip is one of the easiest appetizers you can make. A classic spinach dip made with just a few ingredients and it's always the hit of any party!
I have been making this spinach dip for years and years. I think I first tried it at a neighbor's barbecue and was instantly hooked.
Knorr Spinach Dip
I try to keep the ingredients for this easy spinach dip on hand at all times. I make it often on the weekends and it's a must- have for any holiday gathering.
Ingredients for Knorr Spinach Dip:
- Knorr Vegetable Mix
- Mayonnaise
- Sour Cream
- Frozen Spinach
- Water Chestnuts
- Green Onions
How to Make Knorr Spinach Dip:
I combine sour cream, mayonnaise and Knorr Vegetable Recipe Mix into a bowl.
Make sure to squeeze all of the liquid from the spinach and add it along with the water chestnuts and green onions. Mix it all together really well, cover and refrigerate it for a couple of hours.
We love it so much sometimes it never makes it to the fridge to chill, that's okay too!
We love serving it with crunchy tortilla chips but carrots, celery, fresh broccoli or sweet pepper slices are always good too and a little healthier.
Although we make this all year long, it is a must-have for every summer cookout. I have even piled it onto a grilled burger. Don't knock it until you try it!
Appetizers are always my favorite part of any cookout or holiday dinner. Sometimes we just make appetizers when our family comes over for birthdays or small holidays.
I like to have a big variety of appetizers for any gathering and lately we have been loving my Hawaiian Onion Dip and this Chunky Vegetable Dip. My Pineapple Cream Cheese Pie Dip is perfect for something sweet.
I am gearing up for summer, it's going to be a great one around here. We are making garden plans already and we are putting the finishing touches on a chicken house with a nice fenced yard for them to run amok.
We have been wanting chickens since we moved to Oklahoma and it's finally happening. We have been getting fresh eggs from the neighbor but I'm over the moon to have our own.
I remember my grandparents having chickens when I was growing up. I loved going to gather the eggs but I was actually terrified to get the eggs if the chickens were still in their nests.
I don't think I'm scared of the chickens these days but I guess we will see! I may be making Emmet gather the eggs. If you have chickens, you'll have to send your best chicken keeping tips.
Of course I'd love still love to hear from you even if you don't have any chicken stories. Got a recipe you would like to see or maybe one you would like to share? I love it when I get emails and comments.
When I sold my barbecue sauce business, I really missed that connection with people and this little corner of the internet has meant so much over the years. Good food does bring people together!

I bought all the ingredients and going to try to get a game of chicken foot this weekend, I think it’s going to be a big hit with everyone. And worms that are dried,you can get them at Atwood’s,they will follow you any where. Chicken,s are so fun there so smart. Oh thanks fo the recipe.

I prefer Knorr leek soup mix in my spinach dip. I've tried both and still prefer the leek over the vegetable. Give it a try.
Milisa
Hi Cindy,
I haven't seen the leek soup, I will look for it and try that out. Thanks for the tip!

Have you ever tried plain Greek yogurt substituted for the sour cream? Just wondering if it will taste same or if it will mess up the texture or flavor.
Milisa
Hi Rhonda,
I have not tried Greek yogurt in this recipe but I really think it would work just fine.

Could I use fresh spinach? Maybe steam it then use as the recipe requires. I have some fresh that I'm trying to get rid of before it goes bad.
Tyra
Do I have to cook the spinach?
If I do have to cook it, how does one cook spinach? I've never done that before. Thank you
Milisa
Hi Tyra,
I usually use frozen spinach and just thaw it out and make sure to squeeze out the liquid. My mother insists that you should heat the spinach first and she just puts the frozen package in the microwave for a few minutes. If you are worried about eating it raw, toss it in the microwave or add it to a pan of boiling water for about 3- 4 minutes, drain well and then let it cool enough that you can squeeze out the excess water. I hope that helps!

Is there anyway I could send this through the mail. Granddaughter loves this spinach dip.. I make it always for her. This year I'm in the same state as her. That's why I was wondering about mailing frozen spinach dip.
Sheila
REVISED
Not in same state this year.. can spinach dip be frozen and mail..
Milisa
Hi Sheila,
I don't think it would freeze well and it's best if eaten within a couple of days so I'm not sure about trying to mail it.

I haven’t made Knott Spinach Dip for years. My husband & I entertained often in the summer using the big brick barbecue that was one reason we wanted to buy the house! And that dip with fresh dipping veggies was a cool opposite to John’s spicy barbecue! But once he passed & the house was sold,$, people began inviting me to their parties.
Several friends are coming by to my new home tomorrow as we’ve all just been tested for Covid & passed. So we’re taking advantage of getting together now before we are not as sure! What a time.
Anyway, the Spinach Dip was a MUST & I’m thinking of making the dip now, the night before. I don’t recall; will it be better for the extra hours or less flavorful?
Thanks ANYONE for the answer!
Milisa
Hi Maggie,
It is great to make ahead the night before. My kids have trouble waiting on it to chill but it's best if it has refrigerated at least a few hours before serving. Enjoy your visit!

Renée
I can't wait for it to chill either!!
Renee
I feel it tastes better the next day.
Nancy
Should the frozen spinach be chopped or leave as is. In your photo it looks like it’s been chopped.
Milisa
Hi Nancy,
I think my spinach came chopped, it will work either way.
