artichokes together and  spread them in a shallow baking dish.	Scatter the
green chiles over the top; then carefully spread mayonnaise over all.  Sprinkle
with the Cheddar cheese.  (At this point the dish may be covered and
refrigerated for up to a day.)	Bake in a 350 degree oven for 15 to 20 minutes
or about 30 minutes if mixture is refrigerated.  Serve hot.
