CHEESY ARTICHOKE DIP



Cheesy Artichoke Dip image

"I first tasted this warm, well-flavored dip at our daughter's house-and immediately asked for the recipe," relates Ramona Larson, a homemaker from Andover, Minnesota. Since then, she's served it herself at family gatherings. "Everyone who tries it comes back for more," she reports. If you'd like, you can place the dip in a hollowed-out-artichoke, just like our kitchen crafters did. Or keep it in the dish you bake it in-either way, it'll heat up any setting.
