Artichoke Hearts Attack
Artichoke hearts are readily available in cans and jars in many countries, and are increasingly used in the making of
snack dips. Many national chain restaurants in the USA have some variety of artichoke dip, which is usually
mayonnaise-based. One of the easiest, yet unhealthy, variations on the creamy artichoke dip is jokingly called the
Artichoke Hearts Attack, owing to the amount of mayonnaise and Parmesan cheese it contains.
As an "equal parts" recipe, (with 3 simple parts), it is especially amenable to whipping up at the last minute for a
party, and as it is primarily a base to which other ingredients are added, it is popular among those who like to add
something distinctive.
