This has been my all time favorite party dip for years. I like to make it the night before and serve it in a Kings Hawaiian bread bowl, with crackers and chopped up "crouton" pieces of the scooped out Hawaiian bread. I make this at every group occasion and I'm always asked for the recipe.

Great recipe- my husband and family loved this. The only changes I made was using less mayo and adding about 3 oz of cream cheese and a couple squirts of ranch dressing. Do be sure to follow other reviewers suggestions regarding squeezing out the spinach very well after thawing and letting the dip sit overnight if possible to soften the dried vegetables in the soup mix. Just before serving, it was a little too stiff for dipping crackers without breaking so I stirred in a little half-n-half to soften it up a bit. Also great as a spread on bagels the next day. Even if this is the recipe from the back of the Knorr package, I don't read recipes while grocery shopping so I appreciate the posting of this recipe.

I made this and thought it was great, but I followed the directions exactly and it was a little watery. Next time I will put in less mayo and sour cream, as recommended. It was still pretty good though, just not the consistancy I wanted.

I used only 1/4 cup of light mayo and completed with fat free plain yogurt, it tasted very good. Next time I will use only 1/2 envelope of dry vegetable soup in order to reduce sodium and because I thought that was too strong. Other than that this was great, a keeper.

This is so good! My mom has made this dip for as long as I can remember. The only difference is she uses 1 c. sr. cream, 1 c. mayonnaise, one envelope Knorr leek recipe mix (makes a big difference), spinach, green onion and water chestnuts. She bakes a round loaf, 1/2 whole wheat, 1/2 white flour and serves the dip in the hollowed out bread.... it's the bomb!!

one of my favorites! I like to serve it with sour dough, sometimes in a bread bowl. Kraft olive oil mayo is a great healthy variation and fat free sour cream. It is still wonderful.

Wow! How delicious and simple! I think the quantities of mayo and sr. cream are just right seeing as I had just under the specified amounts and I wish it was a little creamier! But 5 stars none the less! yummm!!!!

This recipe is wonderful. We use it now at all get togethers. We usually use a sourdough bread bowl and pieces to dip. Also, if you mix things up the night before they are just a bit more flavorful! You'll have everyone asking for more.

I made a double batch of this for a party I just had and everyone raved about it. I was hoping for some leftovers but it was all gone! I served it in a bread bowl. This is the best recipe I have found for spinach dip.

I've been making this dip for several years. I use 1 cup mayo and 8oz. of sour cream, (16oz. of sour cream seems a bit much.) I also use Knorr's powdered leek soup, and have never used the green onions. You can carve out the middle of a small, round french bread loaf and place the dip within the loaf. Cut the bread that was taken out of the loaf into cubes and serve with the dip so nothing is wasted. It is delicious; there's usually nothing left over but the crumbs!

My favorite spinach dip! I serve it in a pumpernickel bread bowl -- nice contrast of color -- and then buy and cube a second loaf for dipping pieces. (I also use the pieces from hollowing out the bowl, but just that amount runs out before the dip is gone.) Also very tasty with fresh veggies, especially celery and quartered mushrooms. Leftovers make a good sandwich spread the next day, toasted ala grilled cheese.

I am very disappointed in this recipe. It had almost no flavor and just didn't sit well on the tongue. My husband and I both tried it and decided that we couldn't possibly bring this to a potluck.

I make this prob. 4 times a month. Don't use as much mayo (a little over 1/2 a cup is enough). I like to add more green onions. I make a lighter version with lite sour cream and lite mayo and no one can tell the difference. DO NOT USE FAT FREE MAYO OR SOUR CREAM. I did that once and it looked like it was curdeling. I had to throw it out! Best on the second day to let the soup mix soak into the other ingredients. I like to eat with fresh vienna loaves! mmmm, gonna make another batch for this weekend. Friends always ask for this

Great recipe, but I agree with previous comment. Use less mayo! Best combo after testing was one full container sour cream and one heaping tablespoon mayo. Yum!!!

I am no chef, but I made this for a party a few weeks ago, and it was a hit. I was asked for the recipe a number of times. The leek soup was difficult to find, but well worth the search. I think it made all the difference.
