I decided to use the Cento artichokes but add the sun-dried tomatoes for color and flavor. My Mom was always about color. She would often say about a dish, “it needs some green”. Now I look at food the same way she did. So taking one of her recipes and making it a bit better with a few extra ingredients to make artichoke and sun-dried tomato spread.
Sometimes brunch is a big affair but other times it’s small and more intimate. This artichoke and sun-dried tomato spread can be easily doubled or tripled for a larger crowd or enjoyed by just a few as it’s written.
If you don’t drain the artichokes or sun-dried tomatoes the spread will be oily. You can even pat them a bit with a paper towel. I chopped the sun-dried tomatoes finely but roughly chopped the artichokes for texture.
I served this spread with crackers but you could use celery or carrots and even crostini would be nice. It’s really suitable for just about any dipper.
