Skillet Spinach Artichoke Dip
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp butter, ghee or avocado oil
- ½ yellow onion, chopped
- 2-3 garlic, minced
- 16 oz spinach, chopped
- 14 oz artichoke hearts, chopped
- 5 oz water chestnuts, chopped (optional)
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 16 oz cottage cheese or farmer cheese
- 2 tbsp nutritional yeast (can use shredded cheese if desired)
- salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Place a skillet or pan over medium heat on the stove. Let ghee, butter or avocado oil melt/warm in the pan.
- Sauté chopped yellow onion on the stove until soft, then add in the garlic until fragrant.
- Add in the chopped spinach and allow to wilt before adding the artichokes and water chestnuts. The water chestnuts are completely optional, but I just love them so add them in!
- Once warm, turn down the heat slightly and add a little salt and pepper over the top. If you'd like, you can pack down the spinach with a towel to remove some moisture.
- Add in the cottage cheese or farmer cheese, nutritional yeast, garlic powder and onion powder. Stir to fully incorporate it.
- Once the cheese is fully combined and warm, serve and enjoy!
