Ingredients

For the Hemp Cream

  • 2 cloves fresh garlic
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 2 Tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup filtered water more as necessary

For the Spinach Dip

  • 1/2 medium sized yellow onion small dice (about 1/2 cup)
  • 2 pinches sea salt divided
  • 3 cups frozen spinach
  • 1 (14-ounce) can fresh artichokes rough chop

Instructions

for the hemp cream

  1. Create the hemp cream by placing all of those ingredients into a blender. Start blending on a low speed and slowly work up to a high speed until smooth and creamy. If it needs more liquid, add filtered water 1 Tablespoon at a time, until the consistency is similar to a thick sauce.

For the spinach dip

  1. Next, heat a sarge skillet over med-high heat and add 2 Tablespoons of olive or avocado oil. Once warm, add the diced red onions and a pinch of sea salt. Sauté for a couple minutes until onions start to soften and turn translucent. Next add the frozen spinach and sauté for a couple minutes more.  Now add the artichokes, another pinch of sea salt and sauté for about 3 - 4 minutes more, or until the spinach is cooked and all the ingredients are nicely incorporated.

  2. Finally add the Hemp Cream and mix to combine.  Taste for seasoning.

  3. Enjoy with sliced veggies such as carrots or cucumbers or gluten free crackers!
