My first recipe for Classic Artichoke Dip came from my good friend, Laurie Kovolew. Laurie would often make 2 dishes of this family favorite and bring one to us. Whatever night that happened to be, I’d bake it and call it dinner! My children have been eating this creamy artichoke spread since they got their first teeth.
