2/3 cup shredded Asiago cheese
4 oz chèvre (goat) cheese, crumbled (1 cup)
4 oz (half of 8-oz package) 1/3-less-fat cream cheese (Neufchâtel), softened
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
Salt and pepper to taste
2 cans (14 oz each) Progresso™ artichoke hearts, drained, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 cup Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour

1 cup Progresso™ panko crispy bread crumbs
Canola oil for frying
Additional shredded Asiago cheese, if desired
Lemon slices or wedges, if desired

I've made these poppers several times now and they're always a crowd-pleaser. The artichokes are tender and flavorful, and the cheese is melted and gooey. I love serving them with a dipping sauce.
