Ingredients

  • 1 cup raw cashews soaked overnight
  • 1 ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • ¼ cup water
  • 16 ounces frozen spinach thawed and drained
  • 13.5 oz artichoke hearts chopped and drained
  • cup onions finely chopped
  • 4 garlic cloves minced
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees fahrenheit.
  • Add the cashews, mayonnaise and water to a food processor. Blend for 1-2 minutes, or until creamy.
  • Use a spatula to transfer the cashew mixture to a large mixing bowl. Add all remaining ingredients and stir together.
  • Transfer the dip to an oven-proof dish and bake for 20 minutes. Serve with tortilla chips, cucumber slices or other vegetables.

Notes

  • If you tolerate some dairy, adding 4 ounces of soft goat cheese makes it super creamy and keeps it healthy! 
  • Make sure to squeeze out all liquid from the spinach and artichoke hearts, as you don't want it watery.
  • I love the mini casserole dish you see pictured and it fits the quantity of this dip perfectly!
  • If you want to make this vegan, make sure to use a vegan mayonnaise option.
  • Serving size is about 1/4 cup.
