The other day I visited a newish local sandwich place nearby. It will remain unnamed because I didn't think it was that great. However, on their menu they listed a crab and artichoke dip that was served with tortilla chips. I didn't order it, but it inspired me to create my own version of this dish. I think I did pretty well, especially since I could barely remember to get a picture of it before my boyfriend and I gobbled it up. It tastes better than this picture makes it look...trust me.
I used half a can of real crab meat, about 6 ounces, picked through to get any shells out. Then I roughly chopped 9 pieces of jarred, marinated artichoke hearts and threw those together. I then shredded about 1/2 cup each of mozzarella and cheddar cheeses and mixed it all together with one packet of softened cream cheese, 1 tsp. Lowry's seasoning salt and 1 tsp. fresh pepper. After mixing all very thoroughly, I put it into a small oven-proof glass dish, topped it with shredded cheddar cheese and baked it, covered, at 400 degrees for about 20 minutes until it was nice and bubbly. Definitely tortilla chip worthy.
