Classic spinach dip recipe using Knorr vegetable recipe mix. Easy appetizer recipe that you can make ahead of time and bring to any party.
If you invite me to a party chances are I am making this Knorr spinach dip. It’s such a classic recipe and an easy party dip. I wouldn’t be surprised if my family has been making it for over 30 years. It’s so delicious, everyone’s favorite spinach dip that’s easy to make and better than any store bought spinach dip.
This cold spinach dip recipe is made with a base of sour cream and mayonnaise mixed with spinach, water chestnuts and scallions.
While I love a chilled spinach dip if you are looking for a warm one try this baked feta spinach and artichoke dip. Some other great appetizer ideas are pizza monkey bread, steak and cheese wontons, meatball sub cups and jalapeño popper biscuit pockets.

Knorr Spinach Dip Ingredients
- Frozen Spinach- Chopped frozen spinach thawed, cooked and excess liquid drained. You can also use fresh spinach and cook it down.
- Sour Cream- I like to use full fat sour cream in dips. You can use light sour cream or plain greek yogurt.
- Mayonnaise- I like to use a full fat mayo but you can use light or an olive oil based mayonnaise.
- Knorr Vegetable Recipe Mix– This comes in an envelope most often found with seasonings in the grocery store.
- Water Chestnuts– usually found in the international aisle. They give the dip a great crunch. You can leave these out but I highly suggest adding them.
- Scallions- Also known as green onions.
- Seasonings- Salt, Pepper and garlic powder. I like to add these to the spinach while cooking to add some flavor.
How To Make Spinach Dip
- Sauté spinach on medium heat. Season with salt, pepper and garlic powder.
- Heat throughly for about 5 mins. Strain any excess water.
- In a medium size bowl add sour cream, mayonnaise, Knorr veggie mix, water chestnuts and scallions. Mix well until combined.
- Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.
Serving Suggestions
I like to serve this creamy dip in a sourdough bread bowl with bread cubes, fresh vegetables, red bell peppers and broccoli florets. Some of my other favorite dippers are carrot sticks, cucumbers, tortilla chips, pita chips, crackers and pumpernickel bread.
Yes, this spinach dip is great made ahead of times. It can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Just give it a stir before serving.
I don’t suggest freezing dip. It is best made fresh, stored in the fridge and eaten within 3 days.
