So what does Pinterest have to do with food? Well as I mentioned there are recipes out
there, and yes Primal and Paleo recipes too!
They don’t advertise them that way but when you click on an image it
will jump you over to the website where the main recipe can be found. And some of these gems end up being Paleo and
Primal friendly.
This brings us to the reason you are all here, today’s
recipe for A-Freaking-Mazing Artichoke Dip.
I loved the name so much I’m keeping it!
And it definitely lives up to its name; I literally ate an entire pan in
one weekend. With homemade corn tortilla
chips, with veggies, plain, even stirred into a frittata for breakfast…this
stuff is amazing. And I can’t wait to give those Cheese Crisps a whirl.
I made a couple minor tweaks to the original recipe, and
with the start of football season officially kicking off last night tonight I can think of
anything better to sit and munch on while watching the big game. Go Pack!
A-Freaking-Mazing Artichoke Dip
Serves a crowd
1 8oz brick of Farmer’s Cheese at room temperature
* You can also substitute
cream cheese, but I prefer the dryness of Farmer’s Cheese¼ cup of sour cream
1 cup of fresh chopped greens
* I used spinach and kale but frozen spinach will also work
2 cans of quartered artichoke hearts packed in water
1 tablespoon sriracha (of course!) or chili powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
A couple grinds of fresh cracked pepper
½ cup fresh grated mozzarella cheese, reserve a little to
sprinkle on topMix all ingredients together in a large bowl and pour into a greased baking dish. Top with remaining mozzarella cheese and pop into a preheated 350° oven for 30 to 45 minutes. Crank your broiler on high and let the top get all crispy and brown. Then don’t be like me and stuff your face the minute it comes out of the oven, its hot people…enjoy!
Good grief, now I have to break my juicing diet again! ;)
ReplyDeleteThis is now the second time I've used your recipe for this. This time, I doubled the cream cheese, used a whole package of spinach (just a 1/3 of a cup extra), and doubled the sriracha. This was a total hit last time I made it but I wanted just a bit more cheese and a little more spice. I will be bringing it to a pot luck tonight where I'm sure it will be eaten up quickly! SO much better than store bought!
ReplyDeleteDo you drain the artichokes?
