     Sorry for the long time since posting but we've been busy with closing on a new house and moving, lots of fun and excitement there!   Here's a recipe for you from a dish I made for last night's housewarming party, enjoy!


                                              Spinach Dip
                                           by The Pirate Chef's Mom

Ingredients:

1 C mayonnaise

1 C sour cream

1 small onion, chopped

1 can water chestnuts, chopped fine

1 pkg vegetable soup mix (I prefer Knorr, just make sure you remove the peas)

1 pkg frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry

Whole (unsliced) round loaf of dense bread (sourdough works well).

Directions:

1) Mix ingredients with spoon. 

2) Cover and refrigerate several hours. (I would do a minimum of 2-3 hours)

3) Cut round of crust from top of bread. Hollow out loaf and cut removed portions into large cubes. 

4) Put dip into hollowed out bread and serve with bread cubes.
