Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 1 box (9 ounces frozen artichokes, thawed and chopped)
  • 1/2 cup feta (crumbled, or more to taste)
  • 1-2 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 1 lemon (juice and zest)
  • 2 teaspoons water
  • 1/2 cup oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes (cut into bite sized pieces, plus more for garnish)
  • 1/2 cup basil leaves (torn)
  • Freshly ground pepper
  • Pita chips or whole wheat bread (for serving)

Instruction

  • Fit a food processor with a metal blade and pulse together 1/2 of the artichoke hearts, 1/4 cup of the feta cheese, garlic, lemon juice and zest, and water until smooth.
  • In a mixing bowl, stir together the pureed mixture with the remaining artichokes, feta, sun-dried tomatoes, basil, and freshly ground black pepper.
  • Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary.
  • This may be eaten immediately, but it improves dramatically if allowed to rest, tightly covered, in the refrigerator overnight.
