Spinach Dip - Revisted

I made this for the 4th of July and it was yummy!  I made it again for snacking on at a baseball tournament, but this time used vegetable soup mix instead of Lipton onion soup mix and it's even better!  Nobody could believe it wasn't the regular version of spinach dip made with mayo!
