BAKED ARTICHOKE PARMESAN DIP

The Chinese year 4712, the Year of the Horse, begins today.  If you’re looking for a recipe to celebrate the Chinese New Year, Baked Artichoke Parmesan Dip is a good one.  Not really — just horsing around. 🙂   But if you’re looking for something to snack on while watching commercials during the Super Bowl, this dip is great.  If you bring it to a Super Bowl party, I promise you will be a very popular guest.  Although it’s usually served as an appetizer or snack, it makes a memorable main course for a pity party — I am not ashamed to admit that I dined on this more than once when studying for the bar exam.  😉
