RECIPE: Amazing Onolicious Spinach Artichoke Dip & Marjoram Oil
Aloha from Volcano Hawaii
I started making this Cheesy Spinach Artichoke dip, and every one who has tried it LOVES it.
Here is how I make it.
Start with 1 tbsp butter, and chop up the garlic. Sauté majority of the garlic for a few minutes until cooked. (Save a little to add in later)
Add in remaining butter, cream cheese, yogurt and cheese on Medium Heat and mix frequently until the consistency is melted evenly.
Add in Spinach, Artichokes and remaining garlic.
Let bubble for a few minutes, remove from heat and add the secret ingredient, 2 drops of doterra Marjoram oil. Mix throughly. Do not use any brand of essential oil, because they are not all created equally. Quality over Quantity - doterra uses Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade Essential oils sustainably sourced from organic farmers around the world.

Description
Also known as “wintersweet” or “joy of the mountains, ” Marjoram was known to the Greeks and Romans as a symbol of happiness. Marjoram has been used in culinary dishes, imparting a unique flavor to soups, stews, dressings, and sauces. In Germany, this herb is known as the “Goose Herb” for its traditional use in roasting geese. In modern applications, Marjoram is valued for its calming properties and its positive effect on the nervous system when used internally.* It also supports both healthy cardiovascular and immune systems when ingested.*

Excellent recipe! As a snack, it got raves from my group of 10 adults. There’s about 1/3 of it left over. Wonder if I can freeze it
I would think you can, vacuum sealed, freeze it. I have never had enough leftovers to try to freeze lol. Did you use the marjoram oil too?
Yes i did
Can you make the mixture ahead of time, and then bake right before the party came?
I would think so! If you freeze it in a vacuum sealed package, you should be able to just heat it up and eat it. I will try next time and let you know when it happens :)
