This vegan spinach artichoke dip may be dairy free, but it doesn’t sacrifice creaminess or flavour. No nuts or “healthy” substitutions, just cheezy artichoke goodness.

Equipment
- Skillet or sauté pan (a 9-inch stainless steel skillet is great)
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 10 oz fresh or frozen spinach, finely chopped (around 6 cups)
- 1 14- oz jar marinated artichokes, roughly chopped (= 200g of drained artichokes)
- ½ tsp fine salt or 1 tsp kosher salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning (see Note 1)
- 4 oz vegan cream cheese
- 4 oz vegan yogurt or sour cream (I use my Homemade Vegan Yogurt)
- 4 oz vegan shredded cheese
Instructions
- Pour 2 tbsp of olive oil into a skillet or sauté pan on medium heat. Add 3 cloves of minced garlic and cook until fragrant.
- Stir in 10 ounces of chopped spinach, one handful at a time, cooking it down before adding the next handful.
- Once the spinach has wilted, add the chopped artichokes. Season with 1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and 1 tsp Italian seasoning. Sauté until most of the liquid has evaporated (5–10 minutes).
- Turn off the heat but leave the pan on the stove. Stir in 4 ounces each of cream cheese, yogurt or sour cream, and shredded cheese, until all the cheese has melted.
- Optional: Transfer the dip to an ovenproof dish. Drizzle some oil over it. Put it under the broiler at 500 °F for a few minutes to lightly brown the top.
- Serve hot!!!
Notes
- You can find premade Italian seasoning at most grocery stores. Or make it yourself at home by mixing together equal parts of the following:
- Dried basil
- Dried oregano
- Dried rosemary
- Dried marjoram *optional
- Dried thyme
- Dried sage *optional
- Red pepper chili flakes *optional
