You won’t need mayo for this vegan version of aioli!
Yesterday I gave you the recipe for the Black Bean & Beet Croquettes, but forgot to include the recipe for the Artichoke Aioli. So here ya go!
This creamy, indulgent sauce makes a heavenly topping for the Black Bean and Beet Croquettes, as a dip for veggies or as a creamy pasta sauce if you thin it with more liquid. Try replacing the artichokes with roasted garlic for a tasty variation on this vegan aioli recipe. No matter how you enjoy it you are getting all the creamy goodness of aioli without any animal products.
