★ Ingredients You'll Need ★
You'll need just 6 total ingredients plus tortilla chips to make this yummy appetizer.
- Spinach. Frozen spinach works. Be sure to thaw and squeeze excess liquid before using. Fresh spinach can work but it's a bit more watery, making the dip thinner.
- Salsa. Any tomato-based, red salsa works. Choose your favorite brand!
- Cream cheese. This give the dip its creamy thickness.
- Sour cream. This add a subtle tang and more creaminess.
- Garlic. You can use garlic powder, paste, or minced garlic.
- Green onions. Use the white and green part of these mild onions.
That's it! Simple list of ingredients. No cooking. Just blend it!
★ How to Make this Recipe ★
Chop the roots off of the green onions, then simple add everything to your blender or food processor and pulse until combined!
Could not be easier!
★ Tips & FAQs ★
Fresh spinach contains more water so your dip will be thinner.
Frozen actually works best because you can thaw and squeeze away excess liquid.
And since this is a cold dip, you can actually just rinse the frozen spinach under lukewarm water to defrost it slightly and then throw it in the blend still semi-frozen. It'll be fine and will chill the dip quicker.
This dip needs to get pureed in order to make it creamy and smooth. For that you will need a blender. The ninja blender works best but any blender or food processor will do.
