You won't believe this isn't loaded with fat when you taste it! No one even knows it as tofu in it! Substitute the parmesan cheese with veggie mozzarella cheese (grated) for a dairy-free version

Categories     Spreads

Time 30m

Yield 2 1/2 cups, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (12 ounce) package lite silken firm tofu
2 tablespoons reduced-fat mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1 (15 1/2 ounce) can artichoke quarters in water, drained, rinsed and chopped
1 cup frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese (or grated veggie mozzarella cheese)
paprika, for dusting

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Puree tofu, mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, garlic and onion powder in blender or food processor until smooth.
  • Transfer to bowl.
  • Stir in artichokes, spinach and cheese.
  • Spoon into 8-inch glass pie dish or casserole.
  • Bake for 20 minutes.
  • Dust with paprika before serving.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh spinach and artichokes will give your dip the best flavor. If you can't find fresh spinach, you can use frozen spinach that has been thawed and squeezed dry.
  • Don't overcook the spinach: Spinach cooks very quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked spinach will be mushy and lose its flavor.
  • Use a low-fat cream cheese: This will help to reduce the fat content of the dip without sacrificing flavor.
  • Use a low-fat sour cream: This will also help to reduce the fat content of the dip.
  • Use a low-fat mayonnaise: This will help to reduce the fat content of the dip.
  • Use a low-fat milk: This will also help to reduce the fat content of the dip.
  • Use a whole wheat pita bread or crackers: This will provide a healthier option for dipping.

Conclusion:

This hot spinach and artichoke dip is a delicious and healthy appetizer that is perfect for parties or game day. It is easy to make and can be prepared in advance. The dip is also a good source of vitamins and minerals, making it a nutritious snack or meal. Serve the dip with pita bread, crackers, or vegetables for a complete and satisfying meal.
