Artichoke Dip Recipe

I've had a few comments and some emails about the recipe.... here you go ladies :) Enjoy!

Here's the recipe for the World's Best Artichoke Dip:

• 8 oz artichoke hearts
• 8 oz fresh grated parmesan cheese (not Kraft)
• 8 oz whipped cream cheese
• 8 oz mayonnaise
• 2 tbsp Hungarian paprika (sweet variety)

Mix in large bowl. I don't recommend blending this in a food processor, as artichoke heart leaves are best in larger pieces. Spread in baking pan, up to 3" deep.

Bake at 350 for 20-30 minutes, or until bubbling with brown edges.

Serve with sliced baguette, tortilla chips, or crackers.

This artichoke dip is delicious as is, but a few add-ins I've had luck with in the past are:

• Roasted red peppers (no more than 4 or 5 oz,)
• Crab meat
• Roasted eggplant, cut thin
• Hot chili flakes, to taste
• Sour cream, 8 oz (replacing the mayo)
