I love dips!!! My favorite dip of all time used to be spinach and artichoke dip, but now that I’m super vegan and all, I doctored it up a bit by making vegan kale and artichoke dip.
If you give me a loaf of bread or bag of chips with some dip, I’ll die one happy girl.
Since Super Bowl is right around the corner, we figured we’d get one more recipe up. After all, there’s no better party snack than a good, reliable dip. Not to mention, our vegan kale and artichoke dip is super easy to make and is sure to be a crowd pleaser. We made it for ‘Friendsgiving’ this past year and everyone loved it!
We hope you guys love our vegan kale and artichoke dip as much as we do! If you make this dish for Super Bowl this year, make sure to take a photo and tag us on Instagram at @Eat_Figs_Not_Pigs. Til next time, guys!!!

This is an appetizer favorite! Our non vegan relatives keep requesting this recipe for hosted holidays. I’ve tried it with kale as well as subbing in spinach and have loved it both ways!
Which brand(s) of cheddar cheese, cream cheese, and parmesan did you use?
