"Creation brings deep satisfaction and fulfillment. We develop ourselves and others when we take unorganized matter into our hands and mold it into something of beauty—and I am not talking about the process of cleaning the rooms of your teenage children." Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Meanwhile, coarsely chop artichokes, put in large bowl. Remove seeds from pepper and chop. Grate parmesan; zest lemon. Finely chop parsley. Add pepper, parmesan, lemon zest, parsley, mozzarela, mayo, and garlic to the artichokes.

Fill won tons wtih mixture. Sprinkle with more parmesan. Bake 8 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pan, serve immediately!
