Smoky White Bean and Artichoke Dip

Smokey White Bean and Artichoke Dip is a recipe I stumbled on, as usual, trying to use items on hand. I know- frozen artichoke bottoms on hand?  But, for some reason I had a bag of in my freezer. I had never found a successful recipe using them, until now that is. The result of the test is one word: addictive.

It's now favorite on our Shabbos table, perfect for a challa spread with Babaganoush, Turkish Tomato Dip and Oil and Olive Dips. It goes together in minutes in the food processor. Yup, this one's a keeper.
