Hi Bippie, these were really wonderful melts! We made two batches - the first just as posted and the other with grated onion, red pepper flakes and garlic powder instead of salt, and sweet pickle relish (had some leftover) with a sharp cheddar & those were the big winners of the both. Not that I am saying that your recipe wasn't a winner as well! Made & reviewed for "I Recommend . . . A New Thread" from rickoholic83's review. Just a little side note - we all love artichoke hearts! Thank you for sharing, Diane :) -
This made a great lunch for DH and I. Quick and easy to put together and the taste was just right! I used marinated artichoke hearts and chddar cheese. Thanks! Made for Pick a Chef. -
Great melts! I made these for dinner last night because they were fast and easy to put together when I didn't feel like cooking. I added some onion and red pepper flakes to the artichoke mixture and topped each muffin half with a slice of sharp cheddar cheese. We loved them! Thanks so much for sharing, Bippie!

I come from a very Polish family with 5 brothers and a sister. I love to cook just about anything Polish and I'm pretty good at cleaning out the refridgerator and making something worth eating. Just got married on 07/07/07, so I would love to get some Just for 2 dinner menus. Finally enjoying the wonderful California weather. I haven't started baking, but I'm really excited to get back into the contests here.
