Ingredients

  • 3 Cloves garlic, grated
  • 1 tsp Sea Salt
  • 1 tsp Cracked Black Pepper
  • 1 tsp Olive oil
  • 8 oz Goat cheese log, softened (1 cup)
  • 2 oz LaClare Farm goat cheddar cheese block, shredded (1/2 cup)
  • 2 oz Manchego cheese, shredded (1/2 cup)
  • 2 oz Miyoko's Creamery Cashew Milk Mozzarella Cheese Ball, shredded (1/2 cup)
  • 0.25 cup Almond-milk yogurt, unsweetened and unflavored (one package)
  • 14 oz Artichoke hearts (one can), drained
  • 1 cup Spinach, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp Dried basil
  • 0.5 tsp Crushed red pepper

Instructions

  • Start by preheating the oven to 350*F. Spray an oven safe baking dish with Pam (or other non-stick spray) to prevent the dip from sticking during baking.
  • In a small saute pan, coat the bottom with about 1 tsp. of olive oil and grate the three peeled cloves of garlic into the pan using a micro-plane grater (or the smallest holes on a box grater). Saute on low heat for 2-5 mins, or until garlic is fragrant and begins to turn a more golden color. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • In a microwave safe bowl, zap 8 oz (1 cup) of goats cheese in 30 second intervals until softened (no more than 1-2 mins.).
  • Drain the liquid from the artichoke hearts and rinse to remove some of the brine. Place in a food processor and pulse 4-5 times, chopping into small pieces.
  • Wash the spinach and finely chop into pieces or ribbons.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together goat cheese, manchego, goats cheddar, mozzarella, yogurt, artichoke hearts, spinach, garlic, and spices above until thoroughly combined.
  • Place dip into baking dish and cook in oven for 35 mins, or until a knife inserted into the center of the dip is hot to the touch.
  • Serve with crackers, pita triangles, tortilla chips, you name it! This will keep in the fridge for 2-5 days (but good luck having it last that long).
