This is my one claim to cooking fame. I had this recipe published in Southern Living magazine years ago. Don't let the long list of ingredients intimidate you, it's pretty much just a matter of chopping it all in a food processor. My little brother used to call it pizza dip because it tasted like everything on a pizza to him. LOL

How To Make antipasto dip, a party in your mouth!

  • Step 1
    Place the celery, green peppers and olives in a food processor and pulse until a small chop. You can, of course, do this by hand instead.
  • Step 2
    Add the mushrooms, roasted red peppers and artichokes to the processor and chop. Be careful not to over chop and turn it into a paste.
  • Step 3
    Remove to a bowl.
  • Step 4
    Add all of the ingredients for the dressing to a small saucepan and mix.
  • Step 5
    Bring to a boil over medium heat and stir to dissolve the salt and sugar.
  • Step 6
    Remove from the heat and pour over the vegetables. Stir to mix.
  • Step 7
    Cover and refrigerate until cooled. It's even better the next day and will keep in the refrigerator up to a week.
  • Step 8
    Serve with pita chips, lettuce leaves, bagel chips, or just about anything.
