Spinach Dip: Having fun with your vegetables

I'm not a huge lover of the raw vegetable/crudite plates you see so often at parties - mainly because I end up eating way too many of the vegetables with too much of the dip. It's a health thing really. But spinach dip is one of my absolute favorite things to enjoy - and considering how easy it is, it's brutally dangerous. Daughters love this dip and will take down quite a few cucumbers, bell peppers and carrots to eat it, and Husband is happy with a huge plate a veggies and a bowl of this dip. Add it to your next party and you'll find so many people enjoying it, you'll wonder why you don't make it more often.

Spinach Dip (from the back of the Knorr Vegetable Recipe Mix)
Makes 4 cups

1 package (10 oz.) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
1 container (16 oz.) sour cream
1 cup Hellmann's® or Best Foods® Real Mayonnaise
1 package Knorr® Vegetable recipe mix
1 can (8 oz.) water chestnuts, drained and chopped
3 green onions, chopped

Mix all the ingredients together. Chill for 2 hours. Serve with a variety of cut vegetables.

I love this dip and would bring back packets of Knorr Vegetable mix whenever we go to Canada (we don't have them here!) so that I could make the dip here!
