Kale Artichoke Dip

I had some leftover kale from another recipe and found this recipe to use it up. My family loved this dip and enjoyed it with pretzel sticks. It was simple and easy to make and make for great leftovers. I’ll definitely be making this again – it would be great for parties too!

6 oz kale, cut into bite-sized pieces

8 oz cream cheese, softened at room temperature

1/2 cup mayonnaise

1/2 cup sour cream

3/4 cup shredded mozzarella

3/4 cup shredded Parmesan

2 garlic cloves, minced

14 oz can artichoke hearts, drained and roughly chopped

1/4 tsp red pepper flakes

salt and fresh back pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly spray a 1-quart baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside. Steam chopped kale for 7 to 10 minutes or until tender. Place on a paper towel lined plate to drain any excess water.

In a medium bowl, combined the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, cheeses and garlic. Next, stir in the steamed kale, artichoke hearts and spices. Mix until well combined. Transfer to the prepared dish and spread evenly.

Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until top is golden brown and the dip is bubbly. If you’d like a more golden top, broil for a minute or until until reaches your desired doneness. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before enjoying.
