Mayonnaise-Free Spinach & Walnut Dip
This mayonnaise-free Spinach and Walnut Dip combines roasted garlic, shallots, lemon juice, dill, walnuts, and Greek yogurt in an incredibly easy recipe. All it takes is throwing everything into a food processor and puréeing until smooth. Truly nothing could be simpler. Plus, it's a great dish to quickly and easily throw together for a potluck or just a lackadaisical brunch. It's also my go-to for when I buy spinach and bulk and absolutely everything then needs to have spinach in it!
Equipment
- Food Processor
Ingredients
- 6 cloves roasted garlic (or 2 cloves unroasted garlic)
- 1/2 shallot
- 1 lemon juiced
- 2 tbsp. dill
- 1 c. walnuts
- 2 c. spinach
- 2 c. Greek yogurt
Instructions
- For this recipe, I already had roasted garlic in the fridge. I tend to roast a couple of heads of garlic every couple of weeks just so that I already have it when I need but. To recreate this, you follow my Roasted Garlic Recipe. It takes about an hour and requires a head of garlic, olive oil, and a garlic roaster or aluminum foil. Otherwise, use half the amount of unroasted garlic.
- Add all of the ingredients to a food processor and purée until smooth.I wish that I could say that there was more to this recipe, but that's it! It helps to pulse the spinach a few times so that it incorporates a little easier. But that's all that there is to it! Maybe the easiest recipe on the entire blog so far.
