Recipes From The Kitchen At Bag End

This is a hobbity recipe if ever I tasted one... perfect as an appetizer or for filling up the corners.

2 cans artichoke hearts
1/2 cup shredded fresh parmesan cheese
1 cup mayonnaise
1 heaping tsp. Gilroy Farms minced garlic

Dice artichokes. Add garlic, stir in mayo and cheese till mixture forms a paste consistency. Bake at 425 degrees for 20 minutes or until lightly browned on top. Serve warm with tortilla chips.

Ruby, here's that recipe for your extra dumpling wrappers. This is wonderful.

Sausage Stars

1 lb Jimmy Dean Sausage - Hot
1 green pepper
1/4 onion
1 can of chopped pitted black olives
2 cups shredded cheddar or Monterey cheese
1 cup Ranch dressing
1 package dumpling or Won Ton wraps

Brown sausage. Dice pepper and onion. Combine sausage with diced vegetables, cheese and dressing. Spray muffin pans with non-stick spray. Gently fold in won ton wrapper cross-wise, use 2 wrappers per muffin cup so they form a star. Spray wraps with non-stick spary and brown in 350 degree oven. Remove from oven and spoon in generous amount of mixture. Return to oven to heat until cheese melts, around four-five minutes. Remove from oven, let sit one minute, remove from muffin pan while still warm. Makes 30 stars.
