I promise I'll chill out on the pumpkin recipes ๐. But you know how you open a can of pumpkin puree and the recipe calls for one cup and then you have half a can left? Definitely not talking about my own recipes...oh wait ๐ฌ. Anyway, want use up that leftover puree? I got you covered: pumpkin spinach artichoke dip!
Look how festive! It's perfect for your Thanksgiving table. Or any time really let's be honest.
How to Make Pumpkin Spinach Artichoke Dip
Literally mix up all the ingredients in a bowl until combined and pour it into an oven safe baking dish. I used a Le Creuset au gratin dish! A cast iron skillet also works well.
Top it with some extra cheese and spices and then bake for 20 minutes, until bubbling and golden. That's it!
Oh but remember to garnish with some pomegranate arils and fresh herbs for even more autumn flair. Serve with your favorite crackers or a toasted baguette slices for extra yums!
