Spinach & Artichoke Dips for Tammy

[Guest guest]

Tammy: Here are 3 recipes I found for you. A couple of them will need to

be " veganized " . None call for cream cheese, as you mentioned, but you can

substitute Nayonnaise for real mayonnaise in one recipe and use tofu sour

cream in the other along with soy milk instead of dairy milk. Someone

posted the Tofu Spinach Dip on Veg-Recipes -- thanks to whoever that was.

You could add artichokes to that one.

 

You can find commercial tofu " sour cream " and " cream cheese " if you don't

want to make them. Tofutti makes some and the same company that makes

" Vegi-Slices " does too.

 

I hope one of these works for you!
