This creamy, decadent dip is best served with slices of Italian bread as an appetizer, but is very filling and could be served as part of a main course! I make this in the crock pot so that it can be eaten whenever, but I'm sure it could be made in the oven too!

Tips:
- Choose the freshest artichokes you can find. Look for artichokes that are heavy for their size, with tightly closed leaves and no signs of bruising or wilting.
- Trim the artichokes properly. Cut off the stem and the top inch or so of the leaves. Then, use a sharp knife to carefully remove the choke, the fuzzy center of the artichoke.
- Roast the artichokes and red peppers until they are tender and slightly charred. This will bring out their natural sweetness and flavor.
- Use a variety of greens in your salad. This will add color, texture, and flavor to the dish.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different dressings. A simple vinaigrette is always a good choice, but you could also try a creamy dressing or a tangy citrus dressing.
Conclusion:
Artichoke and roasted red pepper salad is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a healthy and flavorful salad, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
