Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Raw cashews
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 0.25 cup Nutritional yeast
- 3 Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 4 cups Fresh spinach
- 1 can Canned artichoke hearts
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 Onion (finely chopped)
- 0.25 teaspoon Red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
Soak the raw cashews in hot water for 10-15 minutes or boil them for 5 minutes until softened. Drain and set aside.
Add the soaked cashews, almond milk, nutritional yeast, garlic cloves, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper into a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.
Rinse the fresh spinach and roughly chop it. Drain and chop the canned artichoke hearts into small pieces.
Heat the olive oil in a medium-sized skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent.
Add the spinach to the skillet and cook for another 3-4 minutes, stirring often, until wilted.
Stir in the chopped artichoke hearts and cook for another 2 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low. Pour the blended cashew cream over the spinach and artichoke mixture in the skillet, stirring to combine evenly.
Optional: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for extra flavor.
Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring gently, until the mixture is heated through.
Serve warm with tortilla chips, pita bread, or fresh vegetables.
