Quick and Tasty Artichoke Dip





For the 4th of July lake party I'll be attending tomorrow I'm making an artichoke dip that is my absolute standby when I need something easy to throw together that will still be delicious and appreciated. I usually serve it with Wheat Thins. Here's the recipe:

Ingredients
1 regular can artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
1 small can water chestnuts, drained and chopped
1 cup mayo
1 packet dry Ranch dressing mix

Just mix it all up, put in the fridge for a couple of hours to marinate and chill, then serve!

Hope everyone has a fabulous 4th. I'll be starting off with our prized family chicken stew recipe at my Grampa's house, then heading over in the pontoon boat to a family friend's house with a stunning view of Wilson Lake, and a super nice collection of both shady and sunny decks, patios and piers to choose from for lounging and swilling Corona and boat drinks. Looking forward to the day IMMENSELY. Yay for the 4th!
