Serves 10
| Quantity | Ingredient | Add |
|---|---|---|
| ½ c. whole raw cashews | ||
| 1 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil, divided | ||
| ½ c. water | ||
| 1 avocado, ripe, peeled and diced in chunks | ||
| juice from 1/2 lemon | ||
| ¼ onion, finely chopped | ||
| 2 cloves garlic, minced | ||
| 1 (16 oz) bag frozen organic spinach, thawed, finely chopped | ||
| 1 (14 oz) jar brined artichokes, drained, rough chopped | ||
| ½ tsp. sea salt | ||
| Red pepper flakes, to taste | ||

Directions
- Place cashews, 1/2 tablespoon oil, and water into a food processor and blend until a smooth, buttery texture is formed, about 2 to 3 minutes. Pulse in avocado chunks until it's roughly combined with cashew sauce. There should be a slightly chunky texture. Set mixture aside in a medium-sized serving bowl. Stir in lemon juice.
- Heat remaining oil in a skillet over medium-low heat. Cook onion until translucent, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low, add in garlic, and stir continuously until fragrant, about 1 minute more.
- Add in spinach and artichokes and cook for 2 to 3 minutes more or until veggie mixture is warmed through. Add in salt and red pepper flakes, and stir to combine. Remove from heat and let cool for 3 minutes or until no longer piping hot.
- Add spinach mixture to serving bowl and stir to combine. Garnish with fresh parsley, if using. Serve immediately with a side of fresh vegetables.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
