Spinach, kale, artichoke and red pepper dip image

Most spinach and artichoke dips contain a lot of mayonnaise, sour cream and cheese. This is the healthier version of that dip, with coconut milk, and less cheese. You can make it vegan by removing the cheese altogether, or using vegan cheese. If you don't care, and want it creamier, feel free to add cream cheese or more coconut...
