HOT ARTICHOKE JALAPENO DIP RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Drain and chop artichoke hearts.
• Combine artichoke hearts with remaining ingredients. Use as much or little of the jalapenos as you can handle. (When I make this for my family, I use an entire can, but when I make it for guests, I usually only use half of the can.).
• Pour into baking dish.
• Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and paprika.
• Bake at 400 degrees until bubbles around edges.
• Serve with tortilla chips, crackers, as a sandwich spread, etc.
• NOTE: Depending on preference, you can do a rough chop on the artichokes for a chunkier dip, or you can put all the ingredients (except for the cheese) in a blender to puree for a smoother dip.

Steps:

• Use a food processor with metal blade to finely grate Parmesan cheese.
• Add the cream cheese, mixing well.
• Transfer cheese mixture to a mixing bowl.
• Chop jalapeno peppers in processor, add drained artichoke hearts and process just until coarsely chopped.
• Add artichoke/jalapeno mixture and the jalapeno sauce to cheese mixture.
• Mix well.
• If needed, add small amount of additional marinade to obtain desired consistency.
• Salt and pepper to taste.
• Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Serve with a variety of crackers or chips.
