- Stir in yogurt or mayo, then add remaining ingredients and mix well.
- Transfer dip to a shallow baking dish or small casserole pan and bake on center rack for 20-25 minutes until hot and bubbly.
- If adding optional GF Italian breadcrumbs, toast them on a skillet while your dip bakes. Once golden, set aside for sprinkling on the piping hot dip. Green onion or parsley may be added as a colorful garnish if desired.

Notes
- Use full-fat dairy ingredients to maintain creaminess and proper melting.
- Marinated artichoke hearts are ideal, but regular artichoke hearts are a workable substitute.
- You can prepare the dip ahead, refrigerate covered, and bake when desired; allow warmed dip to reach room temperature before serving.
- Optional toasted Italian-seasoned gluten-free breadcrumbs add a crunchy topping.
- Fresh green onion or parsley garnish adds color and freshness.
