FAQs

Can I replace the frozen spinach with fresh spinach?

  • Yes, fresh spinach can be used. But it takes you a lot of time. We need one pound of fresh spinach to prepare the dip. Before adding it to the dip, cook it for a few minutes at a moderate burner flame or until it wilts. Then, drain thoroughly and cut it into fine pieces. After that, incorporate chopped spinach into the dip.

Does this dip recipe include a lot of sodium?

  • The salt content of the vegetable soup mix is high. To reduce the amount of sodium, use a low-sodium version or make your own seasoning blends at home.

Can I skip the sour cream from this dip?

  • Unsweetened Greek yogurt also works with this spinach dip providing a tangier taste and fewer calories.
