Warm Artichoke Dip with Pimenton

Ingredients

• 1 8-oz. pkg, frozen artichokes
• 1/2 cup chopped Pimenton (red peppers canned with olive oil)
• 1 cup mayonnaise
• 1 cup Monterey Jack cheese
• 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 Tbs. fresh lemon juice
• Few grains of cayenne pepper
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Crackers or toasted bread rounds

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Place the chopped artichoke hearts in a large bowl. Stir in the
mayonnaise, Monterey Jack, Parmesan, and lemon juice. Season with cayenne, salt, and pepper.

Transfer the mixture to a shallow baking dish. Bake, stirring once
