Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

4 cups packed finely chopped kale

1 cup tofu mayonnaise

8 ounces regular or soft tofu

2 tablespoons lemon juice

3 green onions -- chopped

1 package onion soup mix

3 tablespoons finely chopped dill

1 small round loaf of crusty bread

 

Makes 2/3 cup.

 

Spinach dip is great to serve at parties. In this recipe, we use kale

instead of spinach since kale is much richer in absorbable calcium.

The tofu provides a creamy texture and the end result is a delicious

and familiar dip that everyone can enjoy.

 

Tip: If you prefer, refrigerate dip for 1 hour before adding to

hollowed-out bread.

 

Steam or boil kale until wilted; let cool. With our hands, squeeze

out excess liquid. Set aside.

 

In a food processor, combine mayonnaise, tofu, lemon juice, green

onions, and soup mix; blend until creamy. Add kale; process on and

off for a few seconds until well mied but without liquefying the

kale. Transfer to a medium-sized bowl. Add dill and mix together.

 

With a sharp knife, cut a round hole in the top of the crusty bread

loaf. Hollow out inside by tearing out pieces of bread and setting

them aside. Fill with dip and serve with reserved bread pieces.
