★ Ingredients You'll Need ★

You'll need some raw vegetables, seasoning, and a creamy base to make the filling. Then roll that up into any flavor tortilla you want.

Here's exactly what you'll need:

1. Spinach. I use frozen chopped spinach but you can also use fresh spinach and chop it yourself if you prefer.
2. Carrot. One carrot, peeled and grated adds flavor, texture, color and vitamins!
3. Cream cheese. You'll ideally want to pick up whipped cream cheese. The light and fluffy texture makes the filling ingredient much easier to mix together. If using a block of cream cheese, you may need an electric mixer (or some serious elbow grease as my dad would say) to combine everything.
4. Sour cream. Just a touch of sour cream adds a tart note to this dip, enhancing the freshness and flavor of the filling.
5. Mayonnaise. This tried and true condiment gets mixed in to add a smooth richness that also helps hold the filling together. (you only need a little bit!)
6. Knorr® Vegetable recipe mix seasoning. This seasoning mix comes in little packets and is where all the magic happens! If you want to jazz up your spinach dip, this is just what you need.
7. Water chestnuts. This fun little ingredient adds a refreshing crunch to an otherwise creamy filling.
8. Green onion. This adds a mild spice and a lot of freshness which balances out the creaminess nicely.
9. Flour tortillas. These come in a variety of flavors like spinach, tomato, or whole wheat.
