Antipasto Dip A Party In Your Mouth Food

ANTIPASTO DIP, A PARTY IN YOUR MOUTH!

Steps:

• 1. Place the celery, green peppers and olives in a food processor and pulse until a small chop. You can, of course, do this by hand instead.
• 2. Add the mushrooms, roasted red peppers and artichokes to the processor and chop. Be careful not to over chop and turn it into a paste.
• 3. Remove to a bowl.
• 4. Add all of the ingredients for the dressing to a small saucepan and mix.
• 5. Bring to a boil over medium heat and stir to dissolve the salt and sugar.
• 6. Remove from the heat and pour over the vegetables. Stir to mix.
• 7. Cover and refrigerate until cooled. It's even better the next day and will keep in the refrigerator up to a week.
• 8. Serve with pita chips, lettuce leaves, bagel chips, or just about anything.

ANTIPASTO

Steps:

• Mix first 5 ingredients in large pot. Boil 5 minutes.
• Add next 4 ingredients, boil 10 minutes.
• Add balance of ingredients. Try not to break up shrimp and tuna too much. Bring to just boiling.
• Process in a hot water bath for 15 minutes.
• Note: *Drain everything except olives and pickled onion juice. Biffy and Frank's flub (taste great.) Omit vinegar.
• Optional - small amount of brown sugar, HP sauce, chopped garlic, hot pepper sauce (dried or fresh) WE NEVER USE THESE.
• Something sure has changed with Recipe Zaar! When trying to put the ingredients in it was a big pain in the butt for the sizes. I've converted the grams to ounces but I didn't have everything in my cupboard to actually look at so I guessed. But most cans come pretty standard, and the "Frozen Shrimp" is a large bag -- it wouldn't let me put just "large.".
