Artichoke and Chili Ramekin

Artichoke and Chili Ramekin
If you are at all fond of hot and spicy food, this is heavenly.
Preheat oven to 350º.

1 cup chopped artichoke hearts.
1-1/2 cups grated Monterey jack cheese
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup of diced green chilies
3 or 4 dried crushed red chili peppers
1/2 red or yellow bell pepper, very finely chopped
2 rounded teaspoons chopped fresh garlic

Put the mixture in a glass ramekin or pie plate. Bake for about 25 – 30 minutes or until it bubbles and has a browned edge.

Serve warm on slices of French baguette that have been coated with butter and toasted in broiler. This is also very good, and especially attractive, served with blue corn tortilla chips. For a non-grain scoop, use pieces of raw bell peppers.



The growing good of the world is partly dependent on unhistoric acts, and that things 
 are not so ill with you and me as they might have been is owing to the number who lived faithfully a hidden life and rest in unvisited tombs.
