Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
8 ounces cream cheese
12 ounces mozzarella cheese -- shredded
1 cup mayonnaise
1 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 onion -- finely chopped
2 cloves garlic -- finely chopped
2 small jars marinated artichoke hearts -- DRAIN WELL
2 bags pita bread

The following appetizer is sure to be a crowd pleaser. I have never taken it
anywhere without being asked for the recipe:
Tear artichokes apart with your fingers.
Cut up pita bread into chip size triangles, seperate and bake on a cookie
sheet until crispy (approx 5 minutes). Combine all other ingredients and mash
(a KitchenAid mixer works great).
Bake in a uncovered casserole dish for approx 30 minutes @ 350 or until
bubbly.
Serve hot out of the oven and scoop up dip with pita bread. If you intend
to take this to a party or are having friends over be prepared to recite
this recipe a number of times. My wife and I bring xerox copies with us!

g.howard@ix.netcom.com I downloaded this recipe off the
internet about 6 years ago and I have made it several times. It is
quite good. I usually add some chopped green chiles.
