Cool Spinach Dip
Print Recipe
We hear so often how important it is to include leafy greens in our diet, so I’m always looking for ways to fit more into our meals. I particularly like using spinach — I find the rather bland flavor works well in just about any recipe. So I blend it up in our smoothies, sneak it into pastas and casseroles, and of course include it in our salads. Here’s another recipe that is a particularly delicious way to serve it — Cool Spinach Dip.

Instructions
Steam and drain the spinach (or defrost & drain if you’re using frozen), and chop the water chestnuts.
Mix together the yogurt & mayo, with about a 2:1 ratio (i.e., twice as much yogurt as mayo).
Stir in the dry soup mix, then add the spinach and chestnuts.
Mix well so everything is evenly combined. Eat. Love.

** You’ll see that I often don’t designate specific quantities and measurements in my recipes. I do this because you know better than I do how much food your family needs and what your tastes are. Cooking isn’t an exact science, anyway — it’s more of an art. (Baking is another story — it actually is science — so I include measurements for my baking recipes.) So use whatever quantity you’d like, make changes to suit your tastes, and substitute ingredients to reflect what’s fresh in the garden and what’s available in your kitchen.
