Quick Bacon Spinach Dip Recipes

BACON SPINACH DIP

Steps:

• Drain the defrosted spinach well until there is no excess water.
• In a large bowl, combine the drained spinach, mayonnaise, sour cream, vegetable dip, and water chestnuts.
• Add the bacon, reserving about 1/4 cup for bacon for garnishing the top of the bread bowl.
• Mix ingredients together well, being sure that everything is combined.
• Cover and refrigerate dip for 2-3 hours before serving.
• If you'd like to serve the spinach dip in a bread bowl, take a large round loaf of sourdough bread and hollow out the center. Be sure to clear at least one or two cups of bread from the inside, while ensuring there's enough bread to create a wall. Add spinach dip into the hollow bowl and garnish with additional bacon before serving.

• Spoon 1 tablespoon of the spinach mixture onto each slice of bread and wrap it with a piece of bacon so that the ends are tucked under the bread (it should look a bit like a belt). Arrange the crostini on the prepared baking sheet and bake until the bacon is dark golden, about 15 minutes. These are best served warm.
