Ingredients
2 fresh jalapeño
peppers, chopped (seeds removed, if desired)
1 yellow onion, chopped
1 1/2 cups 365 Everyday Value® Organic Unsweetened Almondmilk
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup nutritional yeast
3 cups cooked no-salt-added cannellini beans (or 2 15-ounce cans)
1 avocado
1 (16-ounce) package frozen 365 Everyday Value® Chopped Spinach,
prepared and squeezed to remove excess liquid
Method
Cook peppers and onion in a large dry skillet over medium heat until
browned and softened, 8 to 10 minutes. Add almondmilk and simmer,
scraping up any browned bits, for 2 minutes more. Carefully transfer
contents of skillet to a food processor along with lemon juice, yeast,
beans and avocado and purée until smooth. Stir in spinach and
serve warm or at room temperature. (To heat dip, spread in an 8-inch
baking dish and bake in a 350°F oven until hot throughout, 25 to 30
minutes.)
