Baked Hummus & Spinach Dip
 
 
Hummus and spinach . . . two of my favorites. So when I saw this recipe, I knew I had to not only veganize it, but I had to put my own twist on it. And I'm so happy with how it turned out (and so were my guests who gobbled it up).

Ingredients
  • Hummus
  • 2 15-oz cans garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
  • 3-4 cloves of garlic
  • ⅔ C tahini
  • ⅓ C lemon juice
  • ½ C water
  • ¼ C olive oil
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¾ tsp cumin
  • ¼ to ½ tsp cayenne
  • 1 C parsley
  • The rest
  • 4 C chopped spinach
  • 1 7-oz can diced green chilies, drained
  • ½ C vegan mozzarella shreds
  • ½ C vegan cheddar shreds
  • Pita chips, veggies, crackers
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 375.
  2. Start with making the hummus. Combine all of the hummus in a food processor and blend for several minutes until completely smooth. Transfer to a large bowl.
  3. Combine the two cheeses and set aside.
  4. I then washed out the processor bowl and tossed the spinach in. I used almost a full bunch of spinach leaves and chopped it up in the food processor and ended up with about 4 cups.
  5. Add it to the bowl with the hummus along with ½ cup of the cheese mixture, and the green chilies.
  6. Combine well and transfer to a shallow baking dish. (Really, anything larger than an 8x8" baking dish is great.) Top with remaining cheese.
  7. Bake for 25 minutes. Enjoy with pita chips, veggies, and crackers!
