Wow your friends and family this holiday - or any day - with this easy Vegan Artichoke Spinach Dip. Serve it hot or cold, in a bread bowl or a mixing bowl. It has been a consistent crowd-pleaser over the last 10 years since we went vegan.
1cupvegan mozzarella shredsdivided (skip this if serving the dip cold)
1can artichokesminced
2cupsfrozen chopped spinach
3large cloves garlicminced
1tsponion powder
1tspgarlic powder
1tspsea salt
1/2tspground black pepper
Large loaf of bread for bread bowloptional
Instructions
Add all ingredients (except ½ cup of the mozzarella) to a large bowl and combine thoroughly with a wooden spoon.
If serving cold: Allow the mixture to chill in the fridge for at least an hour to set. Ideally, chill the dip overnight. If serving in a bread bowl, use the instructions below to make the bowl just before serving.
Make the bread bowl: Make your bread bowl by carefully cutting a circle into the top of a round loaf of bread - being cautious not to cut all the way through. Then, simply scoop out the bready insides and fill it with dip.
If serving hot: Then, sprinkle with the remaining vegan cheese and wrap the bread bowl itself in foil (don’t cover the dip). Carefully transfer the bread bowl to your air fryer basket. Air fry the dip at 350 for 15-30 minutes.
Serve alongside bread, crackers, or veggies. Enjoy!
Notes
*To bake: You can bake this dip too. Follow all the same steps, except preheat your oven first and place the foil covered bread bowl on a baking sheet in the oven.We love making this recipe with Tofutti sour cream & cream cheese because it tastes awesome and can be found at an affordable price in most grocery stores. It’s often in the produce section but sometimes has its own special vegan section. Air Fryer Recommendation: We air-fried this dip in our Salton Flip and Cookair fryer. The Flip and Cook has been one of the most used appliances in our kitchen for the past two years. Not only is it THEmost beautiful air fryer the world has ever known, but it also stands in as a grill top anda dehydrator. If you’re in the market for an air fryer, we can’t recommend it enough!
