Excellent. I brought this to work as I had company over and had a little left and decided to share. I had to keep giving out the recipe. In fact, it has been requested that I make it again for a potluck tomorrow. Made no changes except used diced jalapenos (4 oz). So simple and SOOOOO good. Thanks for sharing.

Spicy! I used jarred jalapenos since I didn't have any fresh (and the store bought ones are so bland when they're out of season that I don't bother with them!) and threw all the ingredients in the food processor at once and pulsed until the artichokes and jalapenos were well mixed in. Before refrigerating I topped with a sprinkle of cayenne, which was a very pretty addition! I served with Wheat Thins and Baked Tortilla chips.
