- 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt adjust to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes optional, for heat
Instructions

- Mix in Spinach and Artichokes: Add the chopped spinach and artichokes to the food processor. Pulse a few times until well combined but still chunky.
