ARTICHOKE AND ROASTED GARLIC DIP image

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 heads of Roasted Garlic*
6 oz Frozen Artichoke Hearts
4 oz Cream Cheese
1/2 cup Plain Greek Yogurt
1/4 cup Mayonnaise
1/2 tsp Cracked Pepper
1½ cups Shredded Cheese Blend**
(I used a Parmesan, Asiago, Fontina & Mild Provolone cheese blend)

Steps:

First you will need to roast your garlic. See the How To Roast Garlic link below this recipe. Preheat oven to 350° Mash roasted garlic cloves with a fork until it becomes a thick paste. Thaw and drain the frozen artichoke hearts. Make sure you remove as much liquid as possible then chop artichokes into small pieces. Reserve 1/2 cup of the shredded cheese blend, put to the side. Mix all other ingredients together thoroughly and place into the desired baking dish. Top with the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded cheese. I also added a little more cracked pepper and an artichoke heart to garnish. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes then broil for 3-5 minutes until the top is bubbly and brown.
