*Made for Australia/NZ Swap #25* Prepared as presented. This was a very tasty appy spread, which DH and I ate FAR too much of, before dinner -- but it was tastier than the planned meal ! I first tried to broil in the toaster oven -- didn't work, so nuked it for 30 sec. x3. It was even tasty cool, but much more flavor at least warmed. Thanks for posting, Paula.

Really a nice comfort appetizer for football Sunday. This was delicious on crackers and even on chips. The dill flavor was just right for the white cheeses and artichokes. I chopped my artichokes by hand as I wanted a much chunkier dip. Just delicious. Thanks for a keeper. Made for My 3 Chefs Fall 2008.
