My mother-in-law gave me the recipe for these cheesy appetizers when I married her son 5 years ago, and I've been making them for special occasions ever since, relates Karen Brown of Trenton, Michigan. Ingredients:
1 small onion, chopped |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1 teaspoon canola oil |
2 jars (6-1/2 ounces each) marinated artichoke hearts, drained and chopped |
4 eggs |
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
1/8 teaspoon dried oregano |
1/8 teaspoon hot pepper sauce |
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese |
1/3 cup crushed saltines (about 10 crackers) |
Directions:
1. In a small skillet, saute onion and garlic in oil until tender. Stir in artichokes. Remove from the heat; set aside. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, parsley, salt, pepper, oregano and hot pepper sauce. Stir in the cheese, cracker crumbs and artichoke mixture. 2. Pour into a greased 11-in. x 7-in. baking dish. Bake, uncovered, at 325° for 25-30 minutes or until a thermometer reads 160°. Cool for 10-15 minutes before cutting into 1-in. squares. Serve warm. Yield: about 6 dozen. |
