Best 9 Nutty Artichoke Spread Recipes

ARTICHOKE SPREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place the artichoke hearts in a food processor and process until smooth. Process the cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, mayonnaise, garlic and dill with the artichoke hearts until the mixture is smooth and well blended. Transfer to a 9 inch pie pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven 10 to 15 minutes, or until bubbly and lightly brown.

ARTICHOKE AND OLIVE FARRO SALAD

Steps:

• Set aside a sheet pan or a large plate. Bring a medium pot of well-salted water to a boil. Add the farro and give it a stir. Reduce the heat to medium-high and cook according to package instructions, skimming off any foam that rises, until the grains are tender and plump. Depending on the type of farro used, this can take anywhere from 15 to 45 minutes. Drain the farro and transfer to the sheet pan or plate; spread out and cool to room temperature, 10 to 15 minutes. (If the farro is left to cool in the strainer, it will keep cooking, take longer to cool and turn mushy.)
• Transfer the farro to a medium mixing bowl. Add the vinegar, oil and ½ teaspoon salt, and stir to combine. Add the olives, artichoke, feta, dill, red onion and chives, and season with black pepper to taste. Stir and taste. Add more salt, vinegar and oil, as needed.
• Serve right away or store in the fridge for up to 2 days. The farro will absorb the vinegar and oil the longer it sits. Adjust seasoning, vinegar and oil before serving.

HOT ARTICHOKE SPREAD

NUTTY ARTICHOKE ASIAGO LEMON PESTO SAUCE

Steps:

• Roast the garlic by either cooking the actual cloves or if you do it the lazy way like I do with the jarred minced garlic, roast on a frying pan until nice and browned. Put the roasted garlic aside for now.
• If you don't have the little jars of marinated artichoke hearts available near you, use a can of artichoke hearts (doesn't matter if they're whole or quartered because they're being hacked up in the food processor, but quartered will probably chop more easily) and marinate them yourself with a little bit of oil, some Italian seasoning, and a wee bit of red pepper flakes before putting them in the food processor. I like the particular seasoning mix that Goya uses on their marinated artichokes.
• Otherwise, pour the jars of artichoke hearts into a food processor with the almonds. Cover and pulse two or three times.
• Add the roasted garlic, cheese, lemon zest and juice and pulse again. I juiced the lemon and threw in some storebought lemon juice.
• Gradually add the olive oil and keep the food processor continuously going while doing so, until the olive oil is fully incorporated into the mixture.
• Great served over pasta, or as an appetizer with crackers or toasted Italian bread slices.
