Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Soak, covered with 1 inch of very hot water for 5 - 10 minutes to help soften them up so they blend ultra creamy. If you have nut sensitivities, soak the cashews in cool water for 2 - 3 hours to aid in digestion.
- Dice the artichoke hearts and prep the spinach.
- Using your favorite blender, add the soaked cashews, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, lemon juice, salt and pepper, and liquids to the bowl and process until nice and smooth, about 3 minutes or so. Taste for flavor, adding more of anything as needed.
- In a small or medium sized baking dish, add the spinach and artichoke hearts, pour the cashew cheese overtop and mix to combine. Wipe along the rim of the baking dish before baking for clean finish if you like.
- Place in the oven, covered for 10 minutes, remove cover and bake another 10 minutes. Feel free to adjust the cover at any time to your preference (for me, sometimes I leave it covered the entire time).
- Serve as is or give a good stir before serving. This dip is great warm or at room temperature, and is delicious scooped up with a sliced baguette or homemade crusty bread, pita chips, crackers or fresh vegetable sticks.
- Would be great with a light dusting of Almond Parmesan too!
- Leftovers can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 4 days, in a covered container. Reheat in preheated oven set to 375 degrees for 10 - 15 minutes, or until warmed through.

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients. This will help ensure that your dip is the best it can be. If you can't find fresh spinach, you can use frozen spinach that has been thawed and squeezed dry.
- Don't overcook the spinach. Overcooked spinach will be mushy and lose its flavor. Cook it just until it is wilted, about 2 minutes.
- Use a variety of cheeses. This will give your dip a rich and complex flavor. You can use a combination of cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, and mozzarella cheese.
- Don't skimp on the artichokes. Artichokes are the star of this dish, so don't be afraid to use a lot of them. You can use canned artichoke hearts or fresh artichokes that have been cooked and chopped.
- Season your dip to taste. Add salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste. You can also add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little bit of heat.
Conclusion:
This healthy spinach artichoke dip is the perfect appetizer or snack. It is easy to make, delicious, and packed with nutrients. You can make it ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Serve it with pita chips, crackers, or vegetables.
