Roasted Elephant Garlic Green Dip

Served as a appetizer dip w/ Avanti flax crackers & organic romaine, garnished w/ grated cheese, sesame seeds & pineapple sage blossoms


Once you’ve made up a batch of Avanti Roasted Elephant Garlic Butter, you can transform some basic ingredients into this flavorful dip and spread.  In the greater scheme of culinary creations, this green dip is quite a healthful concoction.  It’s loaded w/ veggies and the dairy fat content is comparatively low.  Since it is nice and cheesy and good for nachos and other bubbling creations, most kids will like it.  
  
Make those old fashioned classic nachos turn green w/ flavor envy

It’s a good starter recipe to introduce the wee ones to the taste sensations of all those good greens.  You can use frozen spinach, kale, chard or a combo as well as green beans in this dish.  Just make sure to squeeze out any extra liquid.  You can also you baby bagged greens & zap them in the microwave, or sauté them with a splash of water, salt and pepper. 



Amount
Measure
Ingredient
Prep Method
2 ½
Cups
Cooked spinach or mixed greens
Well drained
1
Cup
Cooked green beans

2
Cups
Cream cheese

1
Cup
Cottage cheese




Add all of the above to the food processor and blend to smooth.  Meanwhile in a skillet simmer the following ingredients:



2/3
Cup

1
Tablespoon
Madeira
Optional
1
Cup
 Onion
Minced
2
Cups
Cooked and peeled russet tater
Organic



Once onion is tender, after about 10 mins, add to food processor and blend well.  Then add:



2
Cups
Favorite grated cheese blend




I like a Mexi or Italian blend.  Or use a mix of Parmesan and Romano, Jack Cheddar, etc.

If desired add:



1 ½
Tablespoons
Citrus zest



Avanti green dip served pesto style atop romesco cauliflower & sprouted garbanzo linguine
