Ingredients
Dip:
1(10-ounce) boxfrozen spinach,thawed and well-drained
1envelopeKnorr Vegetable recipe mix
16ouncessour cream
1cupmayonnaise
1(8 ounces) canwater chestnuts,well-drained and coarsely chopped
1/4cup, plus extra for garnishgreen onionsthinly sliced
In a medium mixing bowl, mix all the dip ingredients until smoothly combined. Refrigerate for 2 hours until well chilled.
Meanwhile, hollow out the center of the round loaf of bread leaving at least 2-inch of the wall around the edges, creating a bowl. Pour cold dip into the bread bowl, garnish with green onions and serve.
Notes
Edible bowl – If you haven’t made a bread bowl before, it’s a beautiful way to serve this dip (or a rich soup like my cream of broccoli). You’ll want to start with a large round of sourdough bread or a boule (the French word for “ball” to denote those big round loaves of bread).
Slice about ½” – 1” off the top and set aside. Using a small knife and/or spoon, hollow out the bottom of the loaf, leaving a 2” border around the sides and bottom.
To keep it from getting soggy (which you’d definitely want to do if you’re filling it up with hot soup), brush or spray the insides with a little olive oil and bake the bread at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes. This step is really optional for this dip; just make sure you let it cool completely before using.
