A delightful and creamy artichoke dip, perfect for gatherings or as a comforting snack.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and a perfect bake.
Drain and chop the artichoke hearts into small pieces.
Chopping the artichokes ensures they mix well with the other ingredients.
In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, cream cheese, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and lemon juice.
Ensure the cream cheese is softened for easier mixing.
Add the chopped artichokes to the mixture and stir until well combined.
Mix thoroughly to distribute the artichokes evenly.
Transfer the mixture to a baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Use a spatula to smooth the top for even baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.
Check the dip halfway through to ensure it doesn't overcook.
Serve warm with your choice of dippers, such as bread or vegetables.
Garnish with a sprinkle of paprika or fresh herbs for a pop of color.
