    Recipe Introduction


    Frozen artichoke hearts are a great convenience food. Keep a box or two in your freezer for quick frittatas, for stir-fries or for this classic American party dip.

    List of Ingredients




    1 9-ounce (270-g) package frozen artichoke hearts, thawed, drained and finely chopped
    1/2 cup (4 oz/120 g) part-skim ricotta cheese
    1/2 cup (4 oz/ 120 g) fat-free or low-fat mayonnaise
    1/2 cup (4 oz/120 g) fat-free or reduced-fat sour cream
    1 tablespoon dry sherry
    1 8-ounce (240-g) can sliced water chestnuts, drained and chopped
    3/4 cup (3 oz/90 g) freshly grated Parmesan cheese
    1 - small diced roasted red pepper (jarred)
    4 - green onions, minced
    1/2 teaspoon garlic salt or seasoned salt

    Recipe



    1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 1-quart (1-liter) gratin dish with cooking spray.
    2 Place chopped artichokes in a 1-quart glass bowl. Add 1 tablespoon water. Cover and microwave at HIGH power for 3 minutes. Drain in a colander, shaking to remove excess water. (Or, cook artichokes in boiling water for 1 minute, drain well and transfer to a bowl.) Stir in remaining ingredients. Spread evenly in the prepared gratin dish.
    3 Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake for 10 minutes or until hot and bubbly.
