- 1 cup Canned artichoke hearts (drained and chopped)
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 tablespoon Nutritional yeast
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Extra-virgin olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground paprika
- 0.5 cup Vegan mozzarella cheese (optional, for extra creaminess)
Instructions
Place the raw cashews in a bowl and cover with boiling water. Let them soak for 10 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until wilted. Remove from heat and set aside.
Drain the soaked cashews and transfer them to a blender. Add almond milk, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Transfer the blended cashew mixture to a large mixing bowl. Fold in the cooked spinach, chopped artichoke hearts, and optional vegan mozzarella cheese (if using). Mix thoroughly.
Pour the mixture into an oven-safe baking dish and smooth out the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the top is lightly golden and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let the dip cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with tortilla chips, pita bread, crackers, or vegetable sticks. Enjoy your Yummy Vegan Spinach Artichoke Dip!
