My daughter asked me for a Cookbook this Christmas. Oh "NOT JUST ANY COOK BOOK" she wants Mom's cookbook. Little did I know that most of the things I fix are just some of this and some of that. I use what ever I had onhand at any given time with almost no measurements. I keep leftover veggies in a countainer in the freezer. After it fills up I make soups, stews and so forth. This too was a "hmmm gotta can left over" an made for a SUPER BOWL BASH. Now it's a fast and easy dish loved by us all. WIth so many swap outs.

How To Make artichoke cheese melts

Step 1

Preheat oven 375 oil or butter cookie sheet,If bread is fresh slice and set aside to dry out. or pop in oven for a couple minutes ( Careful there not to long)

Step 2

mix articokes, all cheese,garlic and mayo in bowl pile this mix onto toasted bread and return to oven til bubbles and lightly browned
Step 3

depending on your oven I go about 7 to 10 minutes serve open faced
Step 4

FOR ADD ONS you can use:shedded chicken or turkey leftovers both are good. I Place meat on bread and cheese mix on top to cover FOR SUBS: change sour cream or cream cheese for mayo,I use this in order to have more of a spread. This is a great simple meal.ALWAYS A HIT! I will serve with a salad or a bowl of soup.Make appetizers on baguette. I never tryed it but I was told one of my fellas made these at a tailgate party for FLORIDA vs GEORGIA . As far as I can tell if the cheese melts and the bread is toasted it's gonna be good. Go For it.
