Football season has arrived. Even though I personally am not a football fan, my husband is and we are often invited to watch football games with others. These are the times where I need to be able to make something snacky and fast. Before going dairy-free I was a huge fan of my cheesy artichoke dip. I searched high and low for a yummy dairy-free artichoke dip recipe, I found one that I liked and after adding avocado discovered a masterpiece.
