Aunt Sheri's Spinach Dip.

Whenever my dad's side of the family gets together, we do pot luck style. Nina provides the main dish and a few side dishes, but every one else brings in other side dishes, desserts, and appetizers so that we can feed our small army of a family.

One day, Aunt Sheri brought along a plate of spinach dip.

She had to have put crack in it. Or heroine. Or something. It was just. so. good.

I went straight up to her and begged for the recipe. She giggled because it was so simple. Only 4 ingredients.

Now that's what I call easy.

1. 16 oz of dried spinach
2. 16 oz of sour cream
3. One packet of Hidden Valley Ranch Dip
4. 12 oz of water chestnuts

Here's how you make Aunt's Sheri's WONDERFUL Spinach Dip.

Gather those ingredients.

Chop the dried spinach.

Throw the chopped spinach,

the sour cream,


and the Ranch Dip all in one bowl.

Then take your water chestnuts (be sure to drain them!!!),


and chop those up even more than they already are.



Throw those in the same bowl and stir, stir, stir!


Note: Gradually add in the spinach. Depending on the juiciness of your sour cream and the amount of water in your chestnuts, your amount of spinach needed will vary.

Once you're stirred up and perfect, put onto a serving dish to serve immediate, or refrigerate to save for later.


I served it with Pretzel Chips and carrots, two of my other favorite things.

What would you use to serve your spinach dip? I am hosting a party soon and plan on whipping up some spinach dip, but not everyone likes veggies or something salty! Help?
