I don't like artichokes..........

That's right! I'm making dip!! Now I have never knowingly ate artichokes, so I was rather hesitant. To show my naivete, I had no idea that mayo often goes in dip. Needless to say this was an adventure.

First off, artichoke hearts SMELL!!!!!!!!! Horrible. I was gagging while I was cutting them up. Then I was trying to thaw the frozen spinach and made the microwave smell funny........

BUT, I got a garlic press and was very excited!! Until the garlic got stuck and I still had to use my fingers. But it worked out!

So here it is in the pan, waiting for the oven to preheat......it was rather thin because all my mom's 8x8 pans were in use, so I had to sub with a 9x13...not the same.

So here it is in all the cheesy goodness!!! My mom and I kept snacking on it all night! SO yes, I do like artichokes when covered with cheese!!

Yummy!! Can't wait for lasagna.....
