You’ll love this hot dip recipe
I’ll never forget that time my sister came home from college and made this delicious Hot Artichoke Dip. It felt like she brought a gift. A beautiful, flavorful, cheesy gift.
And it’s now an easy appetizer recipe that I serve often. Like, truly so easy.
You may notice that something is missing from this recipe. That’s right, no spinach. I’m not a spinach fan. So I don’t want it near my appetizers. So this is happily a No Spinach Artichoke Dip recipe.
I suggest that you double this recipe because your guests will polish this off faster than you can say “spinach is gross.”
And if you are an Artichoke Dip fan, you’ll also want to try out my Artichoke Dip Sliders. They use this same recipe on Hawaiian Rolls for a decadent treat!
Ingredients
To make this simple artichoke dip without spinach you’ll need mayo, Parmesan cheese (shredded), Swiss cheese (also shredded), garlic (minced), and some artichoke hearts (non-marinated, drained and chopped).
So, look. I am not a mayo fan. Like, it’s super gross. (I did have to try to make cookies with mayo though, just because!)
But some dip recipes just need it. It’s what helps to make this dip a little creamier.
Because if you look at the ingredients, it’s basically cheese. But there’s nothing wrong with that, now is there?
Also, I don’t like artichoke hearts. I would never eat one, willingly, on its own. But with two kinds of melted cheeses? Suddenly it’s the best food ever.
Directions
Mix and heat.
That’s how quick and easy this dip is.
Ok, I guess if you want to be more detailed, you’d preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Step 1
Then add all the ingredients to a baking dish and mix all the things.
Step 2
Bake for about 25 minutes. Or until golden and bubbly.
This Artichoke Cheese Dip is creamy and flavorful. It’s best right out of the oven, but it’s still great after it cools down.
The texture changes (it gets a little clumpy) but all that delicious flavor is still all there! Yum!
And when I say it’s creamy, I mean the flavor. The texture of this dip is not smooth like a cream cheese-based dip. Just know that going in.
Flavor Upgrades
And there are all kinds of ways that you can modify this dip to give it different flavor profiles:
- You can add spinach (if you like that kind of thing).
- You can add green chiles and swap out the parmesan for jack cheese.
- You can add roasted red peppers to add even more flavor.
- The addition of bacon wouldn’t hurt anything.
- Cream cheese would make this even more creamy and tangy which would be delish! It would also help to stretch the recipe if you are serving a lot of people.
Frequently Asked Questions
No, but you can get this dip to be more dippable by using a smaller, deeper baking dish.
If you put it in an air-tight container, you can keep this in the fridge for about 4 days. But I doubt you’ll have much leftover. This dip usually gets gobbled up!
I prefer to scoop up this warm, cheesy dip with Tortilla Chips. It’s almost like eating nachos in dip form.
I like the crispness of Tostitos and the Tostitos Scoops that are pictured are a really good option.
But it’s also great with celery and other cut vegetables.
I’ve used this dip to make Artichoke Dip Sliders! YUM!
Eventhough I think spinach is nasty, I do have a few recipes with it. Listen, you cover it with enough cheese and it makes anything ok.
