Just in time for this historical match up between these two SEC teams, The Southern Coterie has some recipes for our favorite game time munchies! Let’s begin with:
Warm Feta and Artichoke Dip

1 (14 ounce) can artichoke hearts, drained and chopped

2 cloves of garlic, minced
Pita chips, Melba toast, corn chips or white

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a pie plate with non-stick cooking spray. In a separate bowl, combine the artichoke hearts, feta, mayonnaise, Parmesan, pimientos and garlic until well blended. Transfer to the pie plate and bake at 350 degrees, uncovered, for about 25 minutes or until bubbly and lightly browned.
Serve with pita chips, melba toast, corn chips, or tortilla chips, or spread on sliced, toasted bread.
