Recipe
The Etiquette Grrls' Recipe for Delicious
Artichoke Dip
The Etiquette Grrls have ordered Artichoke
Dip in restaurants upon Many Occasions, but nothing comes close
to Our Recipe.
1 can artichoke hearts (not the marinated
kind, the ones packed in water), drained
Mayonnaise (regular Hellmann's, not the low-fat/ low-cal kind)
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 cup grated Parmesan Cheese (or a parmesan/ mozzarella/ provolone
blend, which you can buy premixed at the grocer's!)
1/2 package chopped spinach (optional)
Crusty bread and/ or Carr's crackers
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Chop artichoke hearts in the Cuisinart,
or mash them up with the back of a fork. Don't chop them too finely--it's
better if the dip has some Fairly Sizable Artichoke Chunks in
it.
Place artichokes in bowl; mix in 2 or 3
Good Dollops of mayonnaise, lemon juice, garlic, cheese, and spinach
(if using). Is the dip creamy? If not, add more mayo.
Turn into a small casserole dish. Bake for
about 20-25 minutes, or until dip is bubbly, and golden-brown
around the edges.
Serve with crackers and/ or bread. Smile
politely when praised by Your Guests!
