Soooo very good. I made the full amount thinking it would be way too much for us 3 adults and 2 kids. The kids didn't much care for it but us adults scarfed almost the entire thing down. I have just enough to have some tasty leftovers for one today. The best part was how simple it was, well, and how good it was too.

Just a quick note, this recipe is great with a can or two of chopped Green Chiles mixed in! Yummy!

This is a great recipe.. if you add 2-3 cloves minced garlic and a cup of shredded mozerella cheese to it as well. bake in oven until melted.. to die for!

This IS quick to make. And quite tasty for how quick it is. My husband, who is weird about eating artichokes at all, and pretty much won't, said that it seems the only way he likes them is in the dips I make. I do think the suggestion above with added garlic and mozerella cheese is an great idea! It would make it more cheesy and less mayonaisey. Great fast dip though!

My husband's is similar to yours. The husband very much loves such dishes.

The only thing missing, is just a hint of garlic powder. Just a hint, not a large amount. Try it and you will see ......thanx

I love this dip! I've always done it in the oven but either way it's simple, good and always disappears fast!

This is very similar to my mother's recipe (which of course, I played with). She uses 1 cup mayonnaise, 1 cup sour cream, jar of artichokes, and 1 cup parmesean.

I use 1 1/4 cup sour cream, 2/3 cup mayonnaise, and 1 1/2-2 cups parmesean, jar of artichokes, and two cans of baby shrimp and sprinkle some shredded cheddar or mozarella on top. Delish. Fresher feeling in the mouth too (less oily).

I never thought about using the microwave though, I guess the outcome would be the same as the oven, I'll have to give it a go.

My artichoke dip is my most requested recipe.

1 can artichoke hearts (packed in water) drain and roughly chop
1 cup fresh grated parmesan cheese
1 cup mayo
1 cup cream cheese (room temp)
1 cup sour cream (can use light but why bother)
dash garlic powder

blend together the mayo, cream cheese, and sour cream. Stir in rest of ingredients.
Bake in low oven (325) for 1/2 hour until bubbly. Don't use a higher temp or mixture can curdle.
Great with Fritos.......don't know why but they work well.

This recipe tastes great with a generous amount of dill mixed in too.

I have done about all of them listed here. But the only thing different that I do, is add sliced green onions. YUMMMY!
(That is if you're a onion fan like we are)

Chopped jalapenos make a great addition to this recipe!

Tasty! My room mate and I have been experimenting with dips and so far, our crab dip, as well as our spinach dip turned out to be a bust. However, we were winner with artichokes. We roughly chopped them and mixed them with parmesan, a little olive oil, pepper, and garlic powder. We then thinly sliced a french loaf and drizzled olive oil on it and put the slices in the oven to toast at 350. We then topped them with our mixture and back in the oven they went till the topping was heated through. Delightful, and fancy looking!

I use this recipe with an added 1 teaspoon of Cayenne Pepper. I run into people all the time that use this recipe and ask me what the difference is... they are amazed. Also good to dip with a Whole Wheat-Wheat Thin.

Every one of these variations sounds great. My best dip so far is 1 cup mayo, 1 cup assagio, 1 7oz jar hearts and 1 tsp salt. Make it cold or hot. I must try all the others.

Yum! I ate mine with red pepper sticks.
XXOO

My boyfriend makes a version this artichoke dip, but he adds spinach and puts it in a crock pot on low to keep it warm throughout long football games.

Anyone have a suggestion for a mayo substitution? I just detest mayo, but never know which is a better substitution -- yogurt or sour cream?

Many people use plain melted butter as a dip for artichokes. ~Elise
