Directions
LĒVO Prep
Add your garlic and chilis into the LEVO Herb Pod.
Add in the oil.
Set LEVO to "Infuse" at 165 degrees F for 2 hours.
BAM! Garlic chili oil in your super cool olive oil bottle.
Instructions
Soak the almonds in a bowl of water overnight, then drain.
Place the almonds back in a bowl and pour boiling water over them. Let sit for about 6 minutes.
Drain the almonds and using your fingers, peel the skin off.
Add the peeled almonds to a food processor with the salt, pepper, nutritional yeast, and apple cider vinegar. Add the water in batches to thin out and blend better.
Blend together until you achieve a cream cheese like consistency. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of your infused LĒVO oil in a pan, then add in the artichoke hearts and red onion.
Once nice and golden, add in the spinach. Cook until the spinach has fully wilted.
Add the spinach and artichoke mix to the almond cream cheese in a food processor.

Finish off the dip with a drizzle of your infused oil.
Enjoy that spicy infused dip for your 4th of July celebrations.
