Fresh Spinach Dip Recipe

This Fresh Spinach Dip recipe is one our grandma has made for every get together for as long as I can remember!

Fresh Spinach Dip is one way to get EVERYONE to eat their vegetables, and just about anything else they choose to dip. It’s so tasty, and easy!

How to make fresh spinach dip:

Chop up your spinach leaves in a food processor or blender; place them in a bowl and set aside.

Cut up cream cheese into small blocks and put into your food processor.

Add the accent seasoning and minced onion and blend together until well combined. This works best if your cream cheese has softened.

Add the mayonnaise and blend until smooth.

Add the chopped up spinach and half and half to the cream cheese/mayo mixture and blend well. 

If it is too thick, you can add a little more half and half until you get it to the consistency you like.

We love to dip fresh vegetables in our Spinach Dip but your favorite crackers would be delicious too!

How to make this spinach dip a little “lighter”

This dip is DELICIOUS but it doesn’t have all of the healthiest ingredient options. Here are a few substitutions you can make to cut back on a few calories in this dip.

  • Light Mayonnaise
  • Low Fat or Light Cream Cheese
  • Extra Spinach
  • A Light Cream, or Coconut Cream (this WILL change the flavor, but it’s still delicious!)

      Hi Bridget. You find accent on the spice aisle at the grocery store. Accent just add a little flavor. It is a natural flavor enhancer. It has 60% less sodium than salt. You don't need to add it if you don't want to. The taste will change slightly though.

      Accent is an all natural flavor enhancer. It has 60% less sodium than salt. You find it by the spices on the grocery store shelf.

    Interesting...I would do it without "accent" myself. Looks like a yummy dip recipe...would look cute at our Christmas Even appetizer spread.

      If you don't want to use Accent(tm), substitute Beau Monde - also found on the spice aisle at the store and salt free.

      Half and Half is found in the dairy section of our stores. It is half whole milk and half cream. Accent is an all natural flavor enhancer. It wakes up the food flavor. Hope this helps. Let us know if you have any other questions. Thanks for stopping by from Liverpool England! Our cousin served a mission in Manchester England and LOVED it!
