Yet another simple and really tasty treat. Really good on the Savory Almond Crackers.

Prep time: < 5 minutes

Yield: appetizers for 8-12, but the leftovers keep well for a day

Ingredients:

  • 2 Cans artichoke hearts (15 oz, usually)
  • 1 Can de-pitted Green olives (or a cup, if you have an Olive Bar at your local supermarket)
  • 1 tbsp capers (rinsed)
  • 1-2 garlic cloves
  • 1 tablespoon parsley for garnish
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
  • pinch of salt

Directions:

  • Put artichoke hearts, olives, capers, and garlic in a food processor
  • Pulse for a while until smooth, but still a little chunky
  • Blend in salt to taste
  • Put in a serving bowl with red pepper sprinkled on top, and then the parsley
  • Stand back! This is a party favorite.
