Ingredients:

• 2 tbsp olive oil 
•  1 yellow onion, diced
•  1 garlic clove, minced
•  2 1/2 cups fresh spinach or 1 1/2 cups frozen spinach, thawed
•  200g Nafsika’s Garden cream cheese style
• 1/4 cup dairy-free milk, unsweetened 
• 1/2 cup Nafsika’s Garden Mozzarella style cheese 
•  1/4 cup Nafsika’s Garden Parmesan style cheese
• 14 oz canned artichoke hearts, drained, rinsed, and chopped 
• 2 tsp garlic powder
•  1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper

Directions :

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2.  In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until it becomes translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant, stirring frequently to prevent the garlic from burning.
3. Add the fresh or thawed spinach to the skillet, cooking for 3-5 minutes or until the spinach has wilted and reduced in size, stirring occasionally.
4. Reduce the heat to low, then add the cream cheese and dairy-free milk. Stir until the cream cheese has melted and combined with the spinach mixture.
5.  Gradually add the Nafsika’s Garden Parmesan and Mozzarella style cheeses, stirring constantly until fully melted and incorporated.
6.  Once the cheese is fully combined, add the chopped artichoke hearts and stir well. If you prefer a thinner consistency, add a little more dairy-free milk. Season the dip with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper, stirring to distribute the seasonings evenly. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, then remove from heat.
7. Transfer the dip to an oven-safe dish and sprinkle a bit of extra mozzarella on top. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, until the dip is bubbling around the edges and the cheese on top is lightly browned.
8. Remove from the oven and let the dip cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
9.  Serve with your favourite chips, crackers, or fresh veggies. Enjoy!
