Instructions
NOTE: If planning ahead you can thaw frozen spinach overnight in the fridge. For a speedier, make-it-now option, cook frozen spinach via package instructions.
Once spinach is either cooked or thawed, add to a clean dishcloth or a stack of paper towels and squeeze out all the water from the spinach.
In a large bowl combine sour cream, mayo, squeezed spinach, and one packet of Knorr veggie mix and stir to combine.
Next peel and grate a carrot using the fine side of a box grater then chop into small pieces. This will make a superfine carrot “confetti” that will add some extra veg to your dip that are easily snuck past picky eaters.
Slice 2-3 green onion stalks into small pieces and add to the bowl along with the carrots and mix well.
Cover and chill for at least 2 hours or overnight for advance prep.
Serve with your choice of dippers and enjoy!
