Spinach Artichoke Dip

8 oz cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup mayonnaise
2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded and divided
1 6 oz jar artichoke hearts, chopped small
1 cup cooked spinach, with Juices squeezed out
1/4 of a red pepper, chopped small
3-4 oz grated parmesan cheese, divided
1-2 tsp garlic salt
Jalapeno peppers (as many as you prefer) chopped small for the inside and a few whole slices for the top. (we use the kind from a jar, really good and not too hot)

Heat oven to 350 Degrees.  Mix all ingredients together in a medium bowl.  Spread in a baking dish, 8x8 works well.  Lay 8-12 whole jalapeno slices on top.  Sprinkle top with a bit of mozzarella and Parmesan Cheese.  Then bake for 30-35 minutes.  Serve warm with tortilla chips.

Side note:  All amounts do not have to be exact.  I made this up, so it could be changed in many ways.  Today we had no red peppers, so there was no red pepper in it, no big deal!

Recipe Bio:  This is a conference tradition for our family.  Twice a year we get to indulge a bit for this tasty treat.
