Spinach Dip in Sourdough Round

Ericka Sleight was a lady I knew back in the Nuclear days - we started work together, with 46 of our other soon to be closest friends.  This one's hers.

           

Ingredients:

1 round loaf of sourdough bread

1 pkg. frozen chopped spinach

8 oz. (one cup) fat free sour cream

8 oz. (one cup) fat free mayonnaise

8 oz. (small can) chopped water chestnuts

1 pkg. Spring Vegetable Soup Mix

3 green spring onions (chopped)

Celery Salt (to taste)

Black Pepper (to taste)

Garlic powder (to taste)

Parsley (to taste)

Directions:

Thaw, rinse and drain the chopped spinach in a colander (squeeze out excess water).  Chop the onions and water chestnuts.  In a bowl, mix all ingredients together.  Cut a bowl out of the sourdough loaf saving the top for a lid.  Save the bread from the middle of the loaf and cut into squares for dipping.  Additional sourdough baguettes may be sliced and served as needed.
