Spinach Artichoke Dip
A classic, this spinach artichoke dip recipe is perfect regardless of occasion.
This is a simple dip that comes together quickly and will please any palette. Spinach and artichoke dip has been around for generations for a reason. It's delicious!
This dip is also high in protein and nutrients, gluten-free, and if you swap the Greek yogurt for soy yogurt and the cheese for a vegan parmigiana, it becomes dairy-free and vegan.
Make sure when measuring out the spinach that you pack those leaves in as tightly as possible. You could use a chopped frozen variety of spinach, but you will need to squeeze out as much water as you can before using it. Similarly, with the yogurt, use a pressed version, or strain it yourself overnight before adding it to this dip to avoid it becoming too watery. You can do this by using a nut milk bag, or Greek yogurt maker.
