Notes
Make ahead: mixture can be prepared but not baked up to 24 hours in advance. Cover and store in the refrigerator. Bring to room temperature before heating.
Note on jalapenos: if you like spice, leave some of the seeds in. If you leave all of them in, it will be very spicy!
Oven variation: place artichoke-cheese mixture in a shallow baking dish and bake for around 15 to 20 minutes, or until bubbly and heated through.
