Cuisine: American
Serves: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups kale, chopped
- 1 can white beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 cup artichoke hearts, chopped
- 1/2 cup cream cheese
- 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the dip.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped kale, drained and rinsed white beans, chopped artichoke hearts, and minced garlic. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
- Add the cream cheese and nutritional yeast to the mixture. Use a fork or a potato masher to blend the cream cheese into the mixture until it is well incorporated and creamy.
- Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste. Make sure to mix thoroughly to ensure the seasoning is evenly distributed.
- Transfer the dip mixture into a baking dish, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbly, and the top is slightly golden.
- Once done, remove the dip from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
- Serve the Kale White Bean Artichoke Dip warm with your choice of crackers, pita chips, or fresh vegetables for dipping.
Tips
- For maximum flavor, ensure your kale is finely chopped to blend seamlessly into the dip.
- Let the cream cheese sit at room temperature for easier mixing and a smoother texture.
- If you want extra crispiness, sprinkle some breadcrumbs or additional nutritional yeast on top before baking.
- Fresh garlic makes a huge difference - avoid pre-minced garlic for the best taste.
- For a vegan version, substitute cream cheese with cashew cream or vegan cream cheese alternative.
- Make sure to drain and rinse the white beans thoroughly to prevent excess moisture in the dip.
- Serve immediately after baking for the most luxurious, warm, and creamy experience.
- Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator and reheated in the oven for best results.
