Two 14-ounce cans of quartered artichoke hearts packed in water, drained and coarsely chopped
2/3 cup vegan mayonnaise (or regular if you are OK with that)
1/2 cup grated vegan cheese (or freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano if you are OK with that)
2 containers of Nature’s Fynd Dairy-Free Cream Cheese (16 oz. total)

Handful of minced parsley
3 cloves of garlic, minced
1 bunch scallions, sliced thin
2 jalapeños, seeded and minced
Juice of 1 lemon
2 tablespoons Madeira
Salt and white pepper
2 cups of crumbled salt and vinegar potato chips
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
In a mixing bowl, combine artichoke hearts, mayo, cheese, Nature’s Fynd Dairy-Free Cream Cheese, parsley, garlic, scallions, jalapeños, lemon juice and madeira. It should be thoroughly mixed but lumpy. Season with salt and white pepper to taste.
Put mixture in a flat casserole dish large enough so that the mixture is no deeper than 2 inches. Top with the potato chips.
Bake uncovered for 20-25 minutes until bubbly and browned on top. Serve with crackers.
