    Do you think I could use marinated artichoke hearts instead of the canned? Might just be saltier and have more oil than canned?

    1. Carol says:

      Hi, Cheer, Thanks so much for your question. I think you definitely could, however, they might have a touch more tanginess. Thanks again and hope you enjoy!

  2. Rebecca says:

    Wondering if I could make this with ricotta instead of cottage cheese. Would it be too sweet?

    1. Carol says:

      Hi, Rebecca, I think it would work, but do encourage you to try the cottage cheese. Nancy’s also makes cream cheese. I would opt for that before ricotta. Thanks so much for your great question. Let me know how it works.
