This is a hot, savory and creamy artichoke dip recipe that can be spiced up to suit your taste.
It’s a simple recipe with few ingredients, but really packs a flavor punch.
Garlic and Parmesan cheese are paired with tender artichokes and baked in the oven.
Of course, there is nothing much that has garlic in it that I don’t think is wonderful, but combine it with marinated canned artichokes and some Parmesan cheese and what is not to like?
This appetizer dip recipe is so good that even those who swear they will never eat an artichoke will probably love it.
Our recipe for artichoke dip can be heated in the microwave or baked in the oven.
I prefer the oven baked method because the browned top is nice and crisp with the warm runny dip below.
Either way works well so choose the method that works for you.
Most dips are cold, so a hot dip is perfect as a party appetizer. Serve this on it’s own or as part of a mix of appetizers at your next party or holiday get together.
This dip recipe is a real winner for those who like artichokes. It is so easy to make and really packs a lot of flavor.
Serve it with crackers, wedges of fresh Italian crusty bread or some crunchy vegetables and enjoy.
