Feta Artichoke Dip


A little over a year ago, there was a holiday get together with my friends in February.  For Valentine's Day?  No... celebrating the winter holidays.  Who has time in December to do it?  Why not February?  lol
 

As usual, it was a pot luck, because that's just how we roll.  My friend Erica brought this amazing Feta Artichoke Dip that everyone loved.  She sent out the recipe, and it's now become a family favorite.  I made it once last year, but just made it again for the 2nd Annual Cupcake Swap.  Again, total raves!


  • 1 (14 oz.) can of artichoke hearts drained and chopped
    (I have used both plain (from a can) and marinated (from a jar))
     
  • 1 (8 oz.) package of feta cheese, crumbled
    (no matter how much you like feta, try to keep to 8 oz here -- it gets very oily otherwise)
     
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
DIRECTIONS
  1. Mix all ingredients 
  2. Spoon into an 8" glass pan
  3. Bake uncovered for 20-25 minutes at 350°, until lightly browned

    The dip can also be prepared ahead of time.  Refrigerate until ready to bake.  Or you can bake it, bring it, and then reheat a bit.

    Serve with sliced pita bread or tostito chips
