This cheesy, hot, and DELICIOUS Artichoke Dip is one of my favorite easy appetizers! We love it served warm, with crackers or bread chunks for dipping.
There’s something about warm dips and appetizers that I just can’t get enough of. Like this Cheesy Bean Dip or Baked Fontina Cheese Dip.
This Artichoke Dip is one of those recipes I can’t believe I haven’t shared with you guys yet. It’s the BEST! The original recipe is from a good friend (thanks Elaine Jolley!) and it has been a family favorite appetizer for as long as I can remember. It’s a staple at our holiday parties and superbowl parties, and I’m confidant you will love it just as much as we do!
How to make Artichoke dip:
- Combine the sour cream, mayo, cream cheese, and parmesan cheese in a mixing bowl.
- Stir in artichoke hearts and dill weed.
- Bake: Add to baking dish, sprinkle with parmesan cheese and bake at 350 for 20 minutes! Serve artichoke dip with crackers, bread, chips, or veggies.
Make Ahead And Freezing Instructions:
To make ahead: You can make spinach artichoke dip up to 1 day ahead of time. Don’t bake it and store it in the refrigerator until ready to bake. Allow it to sit on the counter for about 30 minutes and come to room temperature before baking.
To freeze: Freeze before or after baking. If baked, allow it to cool completely before wrapping in plastic wrap and aluminum foil and freezing for up to 3 months. Allow to thaw completely before baking or reheating.
Possible Recipe Variations:
- Add spinach: Check out my spinach artichoke dip. Mix the spinach in with the artichokes before combining with the mayo mixture. Then stir everything together and follow the same cooking directions listed below.
- Make it healthier: Feel free to substitute Greek yogurt in place of sour cream and use low fat cream cheese.
- Sub the cheese: Feel free to add or substitute shredded mozzarella cheese.

Also great if you leave out the dill and add diced jalapeños or chili peppers!

All I have are marinated artichoke hearts. Can I use those in place of water-packed hearts?
