GARLIC, ARTICHOKE HEARTS, SUN-DRIED TOMATOES, AND PESTO PIZZA
Based on a pizza from Romio's, a regional chain of pizza & pasta restaurants. One of our very favorite pizzas! The first time I ever had it, DH made it for me the night we got engaged. Ahh, the memories! :D

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425* F. Stretch dough over a 12-inch greased pizza pan. Brush with olive oil and scatter garlic slices evenly over crust. Place in oven and bake for about 10 minutes or until just starting to turn golden brown.
- Meanwhile, place sun-dried tomatoes in a heat-resistant, non-reactive bowl (such as Pyrex). Pour enough simmering water over to completely cover tomatoes. Let soak about 5-10 minutes or until tender; drain liquid and slice into strips.
- When crust is ready, spread sauce over garlic slices (try not to shift them around any more than can be helped). Top with about 1 1/2 cups mozzarella, or to taste. Scatter strips of sun-dried tomatoes evenly over cheese. Place artichoke heart quarters evenly across pizza, then top with remaining mozzarella and the parmesan, if using.
- Return to oven and bake at 425* F for about 8-10 minutes, or until cheese is melted, bubbly, and turning golden brown in spots.
- Remove from oven and allow to rest 3-4 minutes to set up. Cut into slices.
- Top pizza slices with dollops of pesto and serve.

ARTICHOKE, PESTO & SUN-DRIED TOMATO PIZZA WITH THREE CHEESES
I used to bartend at Romano's Macaroni Grill. I thought their food was gross and it really is among the unhealthiest food you can find, but I enjoyed their Basil Pesto Chicken Pizza, which I ate often. I don't think it's even on the menu anymore, and it's been years since I've had it so I wouldn't call this recipe as an exact copycat... but it's close enough for me. I include artichokes and red pepper flakes, which Mac Grill did not use. The chicken is pretty much optional- I often make this vegetarian.

THREE-CHEESE ARTICHOKE-AND-SUN-DRIED-TOMATO DIP
Wonderfully comforting, this hot cheese dip blends cream cheese, Colby Jack, and Parmigiano for a serious foundation of flavor. Stir in chopped marinated artichoke hearts and sun-dried tomatoes before the dish finishes in the oven, for both texture and seasoning, and it becomes almost a meal in itself.
