ARTICHOKE DIP WITH PARMESAN AND MOZZARELLA



Artichoke Dip With Parmesan and Mozzarella image

I had this dip at my dad's house during Christmas. It was really delicious, and normally I don't even like mayo based dips! We ate it with crackers, bread, and tortilla chips. This is made in the microwave, but if you like all the crusty stuff on top, stick it under the broiler for a minute or two afterwards to brown it. Since I have not made this myself yet and the recipe as written does not have cooking times, the cooking time is a guess, but I would just cook it a minute or two at a time and keep a close watch on it. I did a search and looked through all the relevant matches here for artichoke dip, and did not find this one.

BAKED CHICKEN PARMESAN DIP



Baked Chicken Parmesan Dip image

I love chicken Parmesan, and I love hot, baked dips, so it was only a matter of time before I did a hot chicken Parmesan dip. I would make this again even if it were hard to do, but luckily it's super easy. Unlike actual chicken Parmesan where that crispy breading gets soggy super fast, this goes over crunchy toast so the textural experience is probably even better. Serve hot, warm, or room temperature, with lots of crispy crostini.

Tips:

  • Use the freshest ingredients you can find. The Parmesan cheese will have the strongest flavor if it is freshly grated. If you can, use fresh parsley and garlic. Chives are a good substitute for parsley. Adjust the amounts of cheese and mayonnaise to get the right consistency for your dip. If you like a thicker dip, add more cheese. If you like a thinner dip, add more mayonnaise.
  • Let the dip chill for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will give the flavors time to meld together and the dip will be easier to scoop.
  • Garnish the dip with a sprinkle of paprika or chopped parsley. This will add a pop of color and flavor. Serve the dip with your favorite crackers, vegetables, or chips. Some popular options are celery sticks, carrot sticks, and tortilla chips.

Conclusion:

Parmesan dip is a delicious and versatile appetizer or snack. It can be served with a variety of dippers, such as crackers, vegetables, or chips. It is also a great addition to a party platter. This dip is sure to be a hit at your next gathering. Enjoy!
