Garlic Artichoke Dip

Thanks to Miss Meghan for this yummy and "loving" (get it - cause it's a heart shaped dish....) app!!  It was super good - and was gone in like 5 minutes!!  haha  She added some spinach since most artichoke dips are "spinach artichoke dip' - and we added some hot sauce to this loveliness.  We are the friends of spice over here tonight!!  YUM!! 

OBB Cookbook

Ingredients:
2 (8-oz) packages cream cheese (light works great), softened
1 cup mayonnaise (no Miracle Whip or fat free mayonnaise, although low-fat mayo also works great)
1 cup (packed) shredded Parmesan cheese (try to get a wedge and grate it yourself; the pre-shredded stuff in a bag doesn’t melt well)
12-oz. jar MARINATED artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
6-7 cloves garlic, minced
 
Preheat oven to 350. In a large bowl, mix the softened cream cheese with the mayonnaise and shredded Parmesan cheese. Gently add in the chopped artichoke hearts and minced garlic.
 
Place the mixture into a 9″ pie plate (or divided evenly among smaller dishes) and bake for 25-30 minutes or until it’s lightly browned and bubbly on top. Serve hot with slices of bread and/or tortilla chips.
