Artichoke Jalapeno Dip packs a punch of flavor without any hard work! It’s a simple recipe to put together, but it will knock you socks off with taste!
Artichoke Jalapeno Dip has a wonderful flavor to it. The delicious smooth flavor of the artichokes is so nicely paired with the fiery taste of those yummy jalapenos! To make it even better – using your food processor it takes minutes to make! If you don’t have a food processor – it won’t take long – just not quite as quick.
This dip is perfect for any type of party. It has a zing to it, but the cream cheese and the artichokes really do mellow out the hot jalapenos. And you can of course adjust the heat based on how many jalapenos you use. I made this dip just to have a cocktail with my husband (no party needed!)

Do you happen to have any alternatives to adding cheese?
What does it taste like without the cream cheese, good enough for dipping veggies in?
Just looking for a healthier/lower fat alternative, this sounds so delicious!
Thanks! 🙂
without cream cheese? I don’t think it would be great. If you’re looking for lower fat – I have used the low fat or zero fat cream cheese and that’s good. but this definitely needs the cheese to bind it together
