Well, St. Patrick's day has come and gone, and a good time was had by all! I'm not sure I can claim any Irish blood, but people say all of us have a "Wee Irish" in us. Nevertheless, our neighbors, the Bowers, had a delightful party with lots of fun, new people to meet and great food. Always a special time at their house-they are just meant to entertain!!! Fun appetizers, Corned Beef , Boiled Red Potatoes, Carrots, Margaret's Famous Cabbage. Ohhhhhhh, and not to forget the Baileys-YUM!
Here is my small contribution to the appetizers:
EASY ARTICHOKE DIP
1-14 oz. can artichoke hearts, drained and mashed
1 cup finely grated parmesan cheese
3/4 cup mayonaise (or Miracle Whip for more bite)
2 dashes Tabasco
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Mix all ingredients together and spoon into an 8x8 casserole dish or appropriate size baking dish
Bake approximately 30-40 minutes until bubbly
Serve with tortilla chips or little pieces of toasted baguette bread
There ya have it-sooo easy. Easter will soon be upon us, even though snow has covered the mountaintops, and I'm sure we will have special food to share. Remember Christ's gift to us, as we share this special time with friends and family!
As always, don't forget to comment on this blog and give us your ideas as well. I know for a fact-there are many "foodies" out there, just ready to share something I am dying to eat!!!!!
