  1. This was really good! But also very rich as most dips. We had this with tortilla chips. Great flavor with the slight tang of the artichokes and spinach. We had it at family party and everybody liked it!!! Thanks for posting!
     
  2. Our family made this as the appetizer for our New Year's dinner. Using this recipe we ended up with a 9x13 pan as well as a 9x9 pan of the dip. We baked the dip at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. I would recommend cutting the recipe in half the next time we make it. The dip can be served with Ritz crackers, tortilla chips or cubed French bread.
     
  3. Turned out Great. We added salad shrimp.
     
  4. Bad recipe. Tastes good, but absolutely will not thicken up if you follow the directions as written. First. Add the liquid to the roux, not the other way around. That'll help. But even so, you're probably going to have to add an egg or two to make a custard. That, or cut down on the milk. Eventually, I rescued this recipe, but it took far too much time and effort.
     
  5. recipe good but does not say when to add the asiago cheese

For fun I like to cook, bake, scrapbook, spend time with my fiance, get crafty, try new things and my favorite, shop! My favorite cookbook I've come along so far is my mom's old church cookbook, although I must admit I am quite the sucker for the Taste of Home magazines at the grocery store. They are my weakness! I love the pretty covers and they always come with such great recipe cards and tips! Some day I will collect them all, hehe. My passions are fashion, photography, art, style, shoes, handbags, cooking, baking, scrapbooking, crafts, and being creative! <a href="http://s272.photobucket.com/albums/jj176/alleyolds/?action=view&current=PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj176/alleyolds/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <a href="http://s272.photobucket.com/albums/jj176/alleyolds/?action=view&current=PACSpring09Participation.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj176/alleyolds/PACSpring09Participation.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <a href="http://s729.photobucket.com/albums/ww296/alleybarbie/?action=view&current=Calendargirls2.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i729.photobucket.com/albums/ww296/alleybarbie/Calendargirls2.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>
