How to make this Knorr spinach dip recipe
Step 1: Drain and coarsely chop the water chestnuts. Set aside.
Step 2: Squeeze the thawed frozen spinach to remove excess water. Set aside.
Step 3: In a large bowl combine the mayonnaise, sour cream (or Greek yogurt). Add the dry soup mix.
Step 4: Stir in the water chestnut and the spinach.
Step 5: Place in the refrigerator. Let it chill for 4 hours.

Common Questions
When serving spinach dip, it should sit out at room temperature for no more than two hours. You can extend the serving time by placing the serving platter/plate on a tray of ice.
Yes, spinach dip can be made 1 to 3 days ahead of time. Make the dip but do not place it in the bread bowl until you are ready to serve.
No, you should not freeze spinach dip. Both mayonnaise, sour cream and Greek yogurt (if you use it in place of sour cream) will all separate when thawing. This will make the dip watery.
You can use fresh spinach, but it will need to be prepped before adding to the dip. You will need to use a larger amount of fresh spinach to replace the frozen spinach. Place 1-2 teaspoons of oil in a skillet and add 16 ounces of fresh spinach. Cook the spinach for 3 to 5 minutes over a medium heat until it is cooked down. Allow the spinach to cool and then squeeze out the remaining water. Add the cooled spinach to the dip.
