Artichoke Spinach Dip and a Summer BBQ Menu
Here was our quick and simple Summer Barbecue Menu:
Artichoke Spinach Dip with Jicama chips
Marinated Mushrooms
Super Salad
Burgers with red onion, tomato, and lettuce
Chicken Sausages and Patties
Watermelon
Avocado Margaritas (my friends decided these taste like a dessert and I should turn them into popsicles, so get excited for the recipe soon!)
Artichoke Spinach Dip with Jicama Chips
A party would hardly be complete without spinach
dip. The avocados are a nutritious creamy substitute for the dairy ingredients
that are normally found in spinach dips.
By replacing the chips and bread with refreshing jicama chips, you
can still savor this Paleo-friendly spinach dip at your next gathering.
Preparation time: 15 minutes
Serves: 4-8
1 10-ounce package chopped frozen spinach
2 ripe avocados
4 tablespoons Paleo mayonnaise

¼ teaspoon red pepper

¼ teaspoon red pepper
½ cup canned artichoke hearts, drained and diced
¼ cup white onion, diced
¼ cup white onion, diced
½ teaspoon lemon juice
1 large jicama
1. Defrost the spinach in a microwave-safe dish. Let it cool and squeeze out the excess liquid. Add the avocados to a food processor along with the Paleo mayonnaise. Blend until smooth. Break up the beef bouillon cube and sprinkle it into the food processor, along with the onion powder, garlic powder, and red pepper. Pulse the food processor until the seasoning is completely mixed in. In a medium bowl, stir together the avocado mixture, spinach, artichoke hearts, onion and lemon juice.

away the skin. Slice it into ⅛” rounds then cut the large rounds in half. Serve alongside the dip.
