I grew up in Northern California and I miss the flavors from home. I created this dip that combines some of my favorite ingredients like avocados, artichokes and almonds. Sourdough bread is another California favorite for serving, but it works really well with pita chips or tortilla chips too. —Elisabeth Larsen, Pleasant Grove, Utah
