  • 3-4 oz marinated artichokes drained, chopped in half (approx. 1/2 cup before chopping)

Recipe Notes

-You may substitute regular canned artichokes (in water) for marinated artichokes. If using regular canned artichokes, add one teaspoon of lemon juice to the recipe.-To "drain" the sun dried tomatoes, I use a fork to remove the tomatoes from the jar. No need to use a strainer.-Brush the baguette slices with olive oil and toast them under the broiler if you like the bread more crunchy. Top with the spread and bake as directed.-To serve as a dip, simply mix up the artichoke and tomato mixture and spoon into a small oven proof dish. Bake for 15 minutes as directed. Serve with veggie slices, chips, crackers, pita slices or bread.
