Celebrating International Women's Day

Written by Ocean Mist Farms. | March 4, 2020

International Women's Day is Sunday, March 8, and what better way to celebrate than to surround yourself with all the women who have made an impact on your life? Whether it be a girl's night with friends or a chance to treat your wife, sister, daughter, or grandmother, I put together some tasty apps that are sure to make them feel special. 

Artichoke & Avocado Shrimp Ceviche

Ceviche is one of my favorite dishes to make when entertaining. It's light, fresh, and flavorful- plus, it can be made ahead of time and assembled right before guests arrive. Serve on an artichoke petal for an even more elevated presentation. 

Savory Artichoke-Parmesan Muffins

Once you have a savory muffin, you may never want to go back to the classic blueberry muffin. These Savory Artichoke-Parmesan Muffins are aromatic, cheesy, and super flavorful, making it the perfect light bite or complement to any brunch menu. Or, add to a charcuterie board spread and pair with a cocktail (or two). 

Mediterranean Artichoke Dip (Instant Pot)

I always say that it's not a party without dips, and this dip is certainly no exception. This warm, decadent Mediterannean Artichoke Dip is a blend of cheese, spinach, and Mediterranean staples like artichokes, olives, sun-dried tomatoes, and garbanzo beans. It is best served with artichoke petals, pita chips, or crudites.
