These were great!!! I'm the only one in the house who likes artichokes so I pigged out on these 3 days in a row (just kept the mixture in a bowl and smeared some on a toasted muffin and baked when ever I got the urge!). I used light ranch dressing and low fat cheeses and couldn't tell one bit!! Thank you for posting!

Oh my! This was, as the kids say, "teh yummy." I was looking for a different spin on English muffin pizzas, and this was absolutely incredible. I left out the pimientos (don't care for them) but made everything else as directed, and it was DELICIOUS. This is going to become a staple in my recipe file for cheap lunches. Thank you!

I only have 2 words to say to describe this easy meal......wow and mmmm!! I loved the ease of how these came together. I used Hidden Valley Spicy Ranch Dressing, and shredded asiago cheese, otherwise prepared just as stated!! For DH, I put thin slices of honey ham on his muffins, then put the mixture on top. He loved them!!! I froze the remaining mixture for future use over crabmeat on english muffins, or possibly as a sauce over steaks. This is really an easy, versatile sauce that could have many delicious uses on any number of food combinations!! If you do not want the tang, omit the red pepper flakes. Thanks for posting!!!

I mixed up the full amount of mixture, but just split one Eng muffin and prepared it, then put the rest of the mixture in the fridge for another day. Really good!! I left out the pimientos - didn't have any - but added everything else, sprinkling the top with a bit of smoky paprika. I used whole-wheat English muffins, and I put about 2 Tbsp of the mixture on each muffin half. Made a great quick lunch in the toaster oven - thank you!

I absolutely love these! I had bought a bunch of english muffins and wanted something different. Most of the recipes were for breakfast sandwiches or something sweet. Then I saw title "artichoke pizza" and had to take a look. Who could resist artichokes with ranch and cheese. I made these for a movie night with my friends and everyone thought they were great! Thanks for the awesome recipe!!!
