Ingredients
Vegan Spinach Artichoke Dip Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon oil
- 3 cloves garlic, chopped
- 10 ounces fresh baby spinach
- 16 ounces vegan cream cheese, room temperature
- ⅓ cup vegan mayo
- 1 (14-ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
- ¼ cup vegan parmesan
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F to ensure it’s ready for baking the dip once all ingredients are combined.
- Sauté Garlic and Spinach: Heat 1 teaspoon of oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chopped garlic and sauté for about 2 minutes until fragrant and browned. Then add the fresh baby spinach and continue to cook until wilted. Remove the pan from heat to cool slightly.
- Mix Dip Ingredients: In a baking dish, combine the vegan cream cheese, vegan mayo, drained and chopped artichoke hearts, vegan parmesan, sautéed spinach and garlic, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to create an even mixture with all components fully incorporated.
- Bake the Dip: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbly throughout.
- Serve Warm: Once baked, remove the dip from the oven and serve immediately while warm for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- For a nutty flavor boost, sprinkle extra vegan parmesan on top before baking.
- You can substitute the oil with olive oil or avocado oil for different flavor nuances.
- If you prefer a smoother texture, blend the dip ingredients before baking.
- Serve with toasted baguette slices, crackers, or fresh vegetable sticks for dipping.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
