Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large ripe avocados
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 2 tbsp fresh lime juice
- 2 cloves garlic cloves
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 0.25 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
Start by bringing a saucepan of water to a boil. Add the fresh spinach and blanch it for about 1 minute until wilted. Immediately drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process. Squeeze out excess water from the spinach and set aside.
Cut the avocados in half lengthwise, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a food processor.
Add the blanched spinach, cream cheese, sour cream, fresh lime juice, and peeled garlic cloves to the food processor with the avocado.
Season the mixture with salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.
Process the ingredients until smooth. Pause to scrape down the sides and process again to ensure everything is thoroughly combined.
While the machine is running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil until the mixture is well-blended and creamy.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and serve immediately, or chill in the refrigerator for a more refreshing feel. Pair with keto-friendly crackers, fresh vegetable sticks, or enjoy as is.
