What is a good spinach dip recipe? and Rice Kripie square recipe?!


Question: You can simplify the recipe if you don't wish to use the bread as a bowl and just serve bread cubes with vegetables...and serve dip in a bowl :-)

Spinach Dip

1 cup sour cream
1 cup mayonnaise (or Kraft salad dressing)
1 package Knorr vegetable soup mix
1 8 ounce can water chestnuts, drained and chopped
1 cup finely chopped red pepper
1 or 2 green onions, thinly sliced
1 package frozen chopped spinach
2 loaves of round sourdough bread or pumpernickel bread (pumpernickel is dark rye bread) or 1 of each

Thaw the frozen spinach fully and drain well. Wring it out a bit with your hands to make sure it is well drained.
Mix it with the other ingredients, except the bread, and refrigerate it (about 1-2 hours) to let the flavors meld together.

Hollow out one of the loaves of bread with a knife, cutting the bread you remove into 2 inch chunks for dipping. I have specified 2 loaves of the bread because if you just get 1 there always seems to be dip left over and no bread to use it up. Cut the second loaf of bread into cubes for dipping.

Place the hollowed out loaf of bread on a serving plate and fill the hollow with the chilled dip. Arrange the cubes of bread around the loaf and use them to dip.

Tip:
Using one loaf of white sourdough bread and one dark pumpernickel bread not only gives people a choice of breads, it makes the plate look prettier too.
A crusty French or Italian bread works well too. Just don't use a soft bread as it breaks up as you are trying to dip it.

Serve also with vegetables, crackers, and even goes great on a sandwich or wrap.

The recipe for the rice krispy squares is on the back of most rice krispy cereal boxes.

For the spinach dip:
Hot Spinach Dip

2 packages. chopped spinach (10 oz. each)
1/4 cup butter
2 Tbsp. flour
2 Tbsp. chopped onion
1/2 cup evaporated milk
1/2 cup spinach liquid
6 oz. jalapeno cheese, grated
1/2 tsp. pepper
3/4 tsp. celery salt
1/2 tsp. garlic salt
1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce

Cook spinach, drain and save liquid. Saute' onion in butter; add flour, milk and spinach liquid. Cook to thicken. Add cheese, seasonings and spinach. Serve hot with corn chips.

Call me simple but I like the spinach dip recipe on the back of the lipton onion mix box as well as the Rice Kripie book recipe.

If I am really lazy and dont feel like making the dip from scratch many grocery store delis have pre-made spinach dip that is pretty good.
