Artichoke and Fresh Basil from the Garden!



Addy smelling the Basil.

Addy and I whipped up some artichoke-basil dip because Addy wanted to pick some leaves on our basil plant. It's an easy and very healthy recipe.  A can of artichoke hearts, about 6 or 8 basil leaves, 2Tb of mayo, lemon or lime juice, 1/4 tsp of red pepper flakes and salt and pepper.  We dipped chips in it, spread it on grilled cheese sandwhiches and quesadillas and added it to scrambled eggs.  Addy wouldn't try it but Daron liked it!
