This Bacon Tomato Artichoke Dip is always a crowd-pleaser!
Artichoke dip is a perennial favorite at parties. The only way to improve it (in my mind) is to add bacon and tomatoes to it. I have had some flavorless artichoke dips in the past. Too much cheese and not enough seasoning is usually the reason. This one has plenty of seasoning plus the added flavor from a can of diced tomatoes, crispy bacon and fresh lemon juice. It can be made the night before (kept covered in the refrigerator) and then baked right before serving. Make-ahead appetizers are my favorite kind.
