GREEN CHILE ARTICHOKE DIP — a fan favorite around here. My friends and family request this from me for all our parties! I love it with soft french bread or baguette.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
  • ¾ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 can (14 oz) artichoke hearts
  • 1 can (4 or 4.5 oz) chopped green chiles
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
  2. Drain the artichokes and place them on a paper towel. Cover them with another paper towel and press gently to absorb as much liquid as possible. Chop the artichokes into smaller bits and then press down on them with another paper towel to absorb moisture released by the chopping.
  3. Mix all of the ingredients in a small bowl and transfer the mixture to a baking dish. Bake in an 8” by 8” baking dish for 25 minutes until bubbly and a little brown on edges. Remove from the oven and allow it to cool a bit before serving with crackers.
