Artichoke Appetizer

Artichokes are so handy! In this artichoke appetizer, there are only 4 ingredients total. That, in itself makes this easy, but they look great, taste great and don't eat up a lot of time in preparation. Your friends and guests will love them and they'll get gobbled up in no time.

What you'll need:
- 1 pkg. cocktail rye bread
- 1 can artichoke hearts (in water)
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

First, drain the artichoke hearts. Cut the rye bread slices in half. Mix the mayonnaise and Parmesan cheese. Cut the artichoke hearts into slices and place on slices of the rye bread.

Next, spread about 3/4 tsp of the mayonnaise-Parmesan mixture on top of the artichoke hearts on the bread. Turn on the oven to broil and place mini open-faced sandwiches on a broiling pan and broil until it turns a golden brown. Serve it up, nice and warm!

This recipe makes approximately 2 1/2 dozen.

Yum.
