Artichoke Tahini Dip
Description
Artichoke Tahini Dip starts by sautéing chopped yellow onion and minced garlic in olive oil until softened, then adding baby spinach to wilt. The mixture is seasoned with salt and pepper before combining with drained, chopped artichoke hearts, Greek yogurt, tahini, and shredded mozzarella cheese.
The combined mixture is transferred to a baking dish, topped with crumbled feta and additional mozzarella, then baked at 350°F until heated through and cheese is melted. A final broil step browns the top, creating a bubbly, golden crust. The dip’s blend of tangy cheeses and tahini provides depth of flavor, balanced by the mild sweetness of spinach and artichokes.
Serve warm with pita chips for scooping. This dip works well as an appetizer or snack, offering both creamy and cheesy textures with a nutty, slightly tangy profile from tahini and feta.
