Servings: 6 people

Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 14.5 oz cans artichoke hearts drained and coarsely chopped, reserve a few leaves to decorate the top
- 3 cups raw spinach coarsely chopped
- 1.5 cups mayonnaise I like Sir Kensington's Avocado Oil Mayo
- ¼ cup coconut cream only the thick part of a can of full-fat coconut milk!
- ¼ cup nutritional yeast
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp sea salt
- ½ tsp paprika
- dash cayenne pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350. Grease a 2.5-3 qt casserole dish with ghee or olive oil. Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and mix well. Pour into the casserole dish and spread out evenly. Use the few artichoke leaves you set aside to create a "flower" decoration on the top (see photos above - optional). Bake for 25-30 minutes until the sides are bubbling and the dip is hot. Serve with fresh veggies or grain free tortilla chips. Enjoy!
Notes
Make ahead: You can make this Dairy Free Spinach Artichoke Dip ahead of time and store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 day prior to baking.
Egg free / Vegan: To make this an egg free and vegan artichoke dip recipe, look for egg-free / vegan mayonnaise. Primal Kitchen makes a good one!
Freezing: I do not recommend freezing this spinach artichoke dip. The texture may get weird!
Add-ins:To make this dairy free spinach artichoke dip even more creamy and flavorful, feel free to swap half the mayo with vegan cream cheese (Kite Hill is a great almond milk cream cheese), vegan sour cream, or cashew cream. To make cashew cream, simply add ¾ cup raw cashews to a high speed blender with ½ cup water and blend on high until creamy.
