The following appetizer is sure to be a crowd pleaser. I have never taken it anywhere without being asked for the recipe: Tear artichokes apart with your fingers. Cut up pita bread into chip size triangles, seperate and bake on a cookie sheet until crispy (approx 5 minutes). Combine all other ingredients and mash (a KitchenAid mixer works great). Bake in a uncovered casserole dish for approx 30 minutes @ 350 or until bubbly. Serve hot out of the oven and scoop up dip with pita bread. If you intend to take this to a party or are having friends over be prepared to recite this recipe a number of times. My wife and I bring xerox copies with us! jbilos@labs-n.bbn.com (John Bilos) Bolt Beranek and Newman Inc., Cambridge MA Posted to EAT-L Digest - 24 Jun 96 Date: Tue, 25 Jun 1996 15:19:54 -0700 From: Garry Howard Recipe By : jbilos@labs-n.bbn.com (John Bilos)
