    The dip is one of those recipes that really have no reason not to be Paleo-friendly, but somehow it’s almost impossible to find in stores (a little bit like good salad dressing).

    So instead of going little nuts trying to find a dip that follows Paleo guidelines, why not make your own? It’s an opportunity to really play around with the seasonings and find out what you like best.

    Spinach and Artichoke Dip

    Here, coconut milk stands in for the traditional cream base, and bacon, spinach, and artichoke give it flavor and weight: it’s solid enough to be a filling snack if you’re craving something to nibble.

    It is a little bit more involved than standby favorites like guacamole, but it’s not actually that complicated. Just remember to leave everything plenty of time to cool down before you serve it.

    Once the dip is chilled (and assuming you can resist the temptation to eat it all straight off the spoon), serve it with chopped carrots, pepper strips, or any other vegetables you could think of – or go the fancy route and try out a Paleo recipe for crackers or dipping chips.

    It’s an ideal replacement for guac if you have any guests who aren’t really into avocado or if you just want to try out something new and a little bit sophisticated for a change.
