Killer Artichoke Dip

I dedicate this recipe to the New York Giants.

2/3 c. mayo
12 oz. Havarti cheese, coarsely grated (or use Monterey Jack)
one 14 oz. can artichoke hearts, drained well and coarsely chopped. or, if you splurge for the kind that come in glass jars, packed in olive oil, it's extra delicious.
2 bunches of scallions (about 10), white & light green parts only, finely chopped
2 tbsp finely chopped fresh dill
Freshly ground pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, mix all ingredients together. Transfer to an oven-proof ceramic dish just large enough to hold the dip (but a glass baking pan that's actually larger than the dip works too.) Bake until heated through and bubbly, about 20 min. The dip will be very hot and tastes best when it has a little time to cool - 5-10 minutes. Serves 4-6.

i made this last night. my dad said it was the greatest thing he had ever tasted. the greatest thing! and he doesn't just go around saying things like that. he is normally very grumpy. i think your artichoke dip brought my family closer together.
