When I was living in Toronto, there was one thing a few of my girlfriends and I loved to do. It was to go out for “tapas” and a couple cocktails/wine for Happy Hour on Wednesdays around the entertainment district and downtown core. Besides being very social, what I really liked about these little plates was to sample a few of them at the same time. Of course, we tried not to order the same things so we could have a wider range to try. That was fun! Most appetizers are fun to share and calm your hunger until the main course. It also sets the tone for dinner. Every time I have a dinner party at my place, I can’t imagine not serving an appetizer to my guests. It somehow breaks the ice, brings people closer together and opens up conversation more easily. Once in a while, David and I like to share an appetizer during the mid-afternoon with a chilled glass of Chardonnay or Pinot Gris. Among our favorite appetizers there is Tuna Tataki with Avocado Slaw, Easy Baba Ghanoush, Asian Cucumber Salmon Rolls, Baked Goat Cheese with Almonds, Middle East Muhammara, and many more including this one… Crab Artichoke Pepper Dip. Whatever the reasons are for serving an appetizer, the quicker and easier the better – after all you want to focus on the main course more than on your “appy”, right? On the other hand, you still want to serve something tasty and yummy. This Crab Artichoke Pepper Dip recipe is the perfect choice. From start to finish, this chip dip is ready to enjoy with either tortilla chips, bread or crackers. The flavors are very Californian; crab, artichokes and roasted red pepper! Now when it comes to the peppers, roasting them at home is much better because you have control on the amount of sodium which makes them healthier.
