I can already hear those tummies growling so here’s what you’ll need ~

1 Stick of Salted Butter 

 2 ~ 9 ounce Boxes of Chopped Frozen Spinach, thawed

1/4 cup Minced Garlic

1 Red Pepper, finely chopped

1 Orange Pepper, finely chopped

2 cups Shredded Parmesan Cheese

2 cups Shredded Asiago Cheese

1/2 cup of Blue Cheese *TRUST ME!

14 to 16 ounce jar of Artichoke Hearts (it’s ok if they are in oil), be sure to slice

1/2 cup Lemon Juice

2 ~ 8 ounce packages of Philadelphia Cream Cheese

1 tsp. Pepper

1 tsp. Garlic Salt    

*Your Favorite Tortilla Chips

Preheat oven to 350* and begin cleaning and chopping peppers. In a large skillet combine butter, lemon juice, garlic salt, pepper, minced garlic and chopped peppers. Melt ingredients on low heat and stir until well blended. Slowly add cream cheese blocks until completely melted. Stir in artichoke hearts and thawed spinach. Cook for 4-5 minutes while continuously stirring. Lastly, add Parmesan, Asiago and Blue Cheese. Blend well and remove from heat. Place in a 10×13 inch baking dish and bake for 35 to 40 minutes. If you like a “CRISPY” top, broil for an additional  2 minutes. Serves 16 if you don’t eat it all yourself.  Enjoy!
