Need an idea for a potluck or game day snack? Make our Kale Artichoke Dip. It’s a twist on the classic spinach dip but made with kale.
It’s tough to beat a hot and cheesy spinach and artichoke dip. Such a total crowd-pleaser. But, we think we’ve done it here. This version uses tasty extra-healthy kale instead of spinach. We used the bagged SuperFit chopped kale to make this quick and easy.

Ingredients
In addition to the kale it also, of course, has the artichokes. We prefer the ones that are canned and packed in water (like this) over marinated artichoke hearts because we don’t really want an acidic or briny flavor here. But if you have a brand of marinated artichokes that you love, go with it.
The dip also has Greek yogurt in there for creaminess, along with cream cheese, mozzarella, and Parmesan for all that very important cheese.
How To Make Kale Artichoke Dip
The best thing about this dip (other than the taste!) is that it’s super-quick to make with only about 10 minutes of hands-on time. Then it goes into the oven and is ready when it’s bubbling, about 20 minutes.
First, get your oven preheating to 425°F and warm olive oil in a saucepan on the stove over low heat. Using an oven-safe pan like a cast-iron skillet means it can go from stovetop to oven, saving you a dish. Add your minced garlic, then increase the heat and add chopped kale and salt to the pan. Cook for a few minutes until wilted.
Take the pan off of the heat and add in your artichokes, cream cheese, mozzarella, Parmesan cheese, and some black pepper. Stir until well combined and then stir in the Greek yogurt. Transfer to a baking dish if your pan isn’t oven-safe.
Bake until the kale artichoke dip is bubbling and browned on top. Let it sit for a few minutes, then it’s time to dig in! Just keep in mind that the dish is still hot.
