Chipotle Artichoke Dip
Recipe By
awn/Adapted from HC
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Dips
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method1 pound cream cheese -- room temperature
1/2 package Ranch salad dressing mix
1 can artichoke hearts -- (can of beans size)
1/2 cup half and half -- (approx.)
1 chipotle chiles in adobo sauce
1/2 tablespoon adobo sauce
cracked black pepper
I put the cream cheese and half and half in the food processor (I wish I had a bigger one) and pulsed and smooshed until it blended. Next I added the chipotle pepper, and pulsed and stirred until it was mixed in. Then I added the drained artichokes and pulsed. Finally I added the black pepper and pulsed it in. I portioned it into 12-ounce deli containers and garnished with cracked black pepper. Cayenne pepper would have been nicer, but I was out. This made enough for seven containers, so you might want to halve this recipe. I would have liked it chunkier, but because my processor was maxed out, it was very pureed.

Artichoke Heart Spaghetti Sauce
Recipe By :hAndyman
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Pasta Sauces
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method14 ounces artichoke hearts -- drained and sliced
1/2 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (1-2 tsp)
1 teaspoon salt
3 cloves garlic -- minced
4 tablespoons chopped parsley
juice of 1 lemon
Combine artichokes, oil, peppers, salt and garlic in a heavy pot. Cook over medium heat, stirring until hot. Add parsley and lemon juice. Serve over cooked noodles topped with freshly ground pepper and shredded Parmesan.
Andy's notes: I heat the olive oil (I do try to use less) and add the garlic and some sliced shallots or onions, the pepper flakes, and maybe some diced sweet or hot red pepper, and sauté. I then add the artichokes and some salt and heat until hot. Finally I add the parsley and lemon juice (if it's a large lemon I use half or to taste). Serve as above.

Serving Size : 0 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories :
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method1 large round loaf French bread
1 jar marinated artichoke hearts -- drained,liquid
reserved
1/2 cup mayonnaise
3 large tomatoes -- sliced
3 ounces thinly sliced salami
1/2 lb thinly sliced turkey breast
1/4 lb cheese slices -- any kind
1 can sliced ripe black olives -- (2 1/2 ounce)
drained
1 purple onion -- thinly sliced
Cut loaf of bread in half horizontally and hollow out the soft bread from both halves, leaving a shell about 3/4-inch thick.
Reserve soft bread for another use.
In small bowl, combine artichoke liquid with mayonnaise and spread onto bread shells.
In bottom half, layer ingredients at least three times until mounded high, beginning and ending with tomatoes.
Place top half of bread over mound of ingredients.
Wrap entire loaf with plastic wrap.
This must be assembled at least 2 hours before serving, but can be assembled up to 8 hours before serving.
Refrigerate.
Before serving, place sandwich (wrapped in plastic) on a hard surface and SIT ON IT!
This smashes the ingredients together and makes it easy to serve.
Do not omit this step, strange as it seems, as this step is what makes the sandwich delicious.
Slice the loaf into wedges to serve.

Roasted Pepper and Artichoke Tapenade
Recipe By :
Serving Size : 0 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Uncategorized2
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method7 oz. roasted red peppers -- drained and chopped
6 oz. marinated artichoke hearts -- drained andchopped
1/2 cup fresh minced parsley
1/2 cup fresh grated parmesan cheese
1/4 plus cup olive oil (original recipe was
1/3 cup -- I start with 1/4
and add more if needed)
1/4 cup drained capers
4 garlic cloves -- chopped
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
Combine all ingredients in processor.
Process using on/off turns until mixture is
well blended and finely chopped (not too
fine, leave a little texture). Transfer
mixture to medium bowl. Season to taste with
salt and pepper. Makes about 1 3/4 cups.
Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and
refrigerate.
Pat's notes: At a wine tasting in the Napa
Valley the William Hill Winery offered a
sampler plate of goodies to nibble on while
tasting their wines. I particularly enjoyed
this tapenade so when I returned home I
called to ask for the recipe which they
graciously shared.
The winery served this tapenade on a plate
with some sliced smoked cheese like Muenster,
a wedge of incredibly good creamy blue
cheese, and some thinly-sliced lightly
toasted baguettes, plain crackers, and a bowl
of delicious green olives (with pits).
It’s good with fresh veggies or on baguette
slices but I think I like it best on toasted
crostini.

learned later the recipe is from Bon Appetit
magazine, 3/96)
