Ingredients
- 1 can artichoke hearts 14 ounces drained and chopped

- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese grated
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- Salt to taste
- pepper to taste
Optional:

Instructions
- Drain the artichoke hearts well and chop into small pieces. Pat dry if needed to avoid a runny dip.
- In a medium bowl, combine mayonnaise, sour cream, mozzarella, Parmesan, and minced garlic. Stir well. Add the chopped artichokes and mix again. Season with salt and pepper.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Spread the mixture in a small baking dish. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the top is golden and bubbly.
- Let the dip cool a few minutes. Sprinkle with chopped green onions or parsley if desired. Serve with crackers, bread slices, tortilla chips, or fresh veggies.
Notes
Tips:
- Make the dip ahead of time and refrigerate; bake when ready.
- Use a glass or ceramic baking dish for even browning.
- For extra flavor, sprinkle a little paprika or add shredded cheddar.
- You can also make it in a slow cooker on low for 1 to 2 hours.
- Add cooked bacon bits for a smoky flavor.
- Mix in some spinach for a spinach artichoke twist.
- Use Greek yogurt instead of sour cream for a lighter version.
- Try a mix of mozzarella and gouda cheese for extra richness.
