This baked artichoke dip recipe is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Classico Riserva.  All opinions are 100% mine.

This creamy parmesan rosa baked artichoke dip is full of rich, cheesy goodness with just the perfect tang of tomato flavor. Bake it today and enjoy!

Creamy Rosa Baked Artichoke Dip

Everyone’s always looking for the perfect baked artichoke dip.  Well, I am, at any rate.  And I’d bet quite a few of you out there are searching as well!

Over the years, I’ve had many a different version at various restaurants.  After a while, they all start to blend together, and I wish for an artichoke dip with a little more flair.  Something to kick up the flavor and make it extra memorable.

I tested many different ideas and kept a notebook to record my thoughts.

All that thinking led to coming up with a delicious new version to share with you.  I’m using pasta sauce to make a “pasta rosa” version of baked artichoke dip.  Typically, pasta rosa sauce is alfredo sauce flavored with Italian tomato sauce, but in this case, we’re going to make it even creamier by flavoring cream cheese with tomato sauce.

I was inspired by the new Classico Riserva Pasta Sauce.  This new product has exceptional taste that will really take your meals to the next level.

Classico Riserva Label and Logo

Classico Riserva Pasta Sauce comes in several flavors.

  • Marinara
  • Eggplant & Artichoke
  • Roasted Garlic
  • Arrabbiata and Puttanesca

Each one is made with vine-ripened tomatoes, herbs, spices, extra virgin olive oil, and sea salt.  They have no artificial ingredients or added sugar, so you can rest assured that you’re opening up a bottle of the good stuff.

What to Serve with Baked Artichoke Dip

If it’s baked artichoke dip, I’ll scoop it up with just about anything.  However, there are a few favorite “dippers” I return to time and time again.  Here are some of my favorite things to dip.

  • Bagel chips
  • Toasted French bread rounds
  • Baked pita points
  • Hot naan bread
  • Fresh Italian bread

Tips for Making Baked Artichoke Dip

  • If you will be serving this directly to your table, choose a cute baking dish.  Somehow, that makes it mroe festive.  I like to fix it for myself and pretend I’m dining at a restaurant!
  • Use any kind of breadcrumbs, such as Italian seasoned bread crumbs or panko, to add a little extra flavor and texture.  Panko breadcrumbs are crunchy, and seasoned breadcrumbs add a nice flavor and a pleasant crust on top.  You can also get the best of both worlds by using a little of both.
  • If you have leftovers, let cool before covering.  If you cover the dish too soon, it will trap steam, which will condense and leave water sitting in the dip.  To reheat, simply bake again until hot and slightly bubbly.

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces cream cheese
  • 1/2 cup tomato pasta sauce I used Classico Riserva
  • 1 pinch sea salt
  • Fresh ground pepper
  • 1/2 cup Italian shredded cheese blend
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup drained canned artichoke quarters

Optional

  • Seasoned Italian breadcrumbs or panko breadcrumbs
  • Extra shredded cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 F.
  2. In a food processor, combine the cream cheese, tomato sauce, salt, pepper, shredded cheese, and mayonnaise. Process until well combined, then remove the blade.
  3. Use a spatula to fold in the artichoke quarters, breaking up the artichoke pieces as you go.
  4. Scrape the dip into a baking dish. Top with additional shredded cheese and breadcrumbs if desired. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes, or until the dip is puffy, browned, and very hot. Let cool slightly, then serve.

    That recipe definitely came out beautifully. I didn’t even know you used spaghetti sauce in artichoke dip. I will have to print this recipe for future. Can’t wait to try it.

      Traditional artichoke dip recipes don’t, but I gave this one a twist since I like rosa sauce so much. I hope you like it!

    YUM! I love both rosa sauce (penne rosa is my favorite from Italian restaurants) and artichoke dip. This is right up my alley. I pinned for later! I love to get those french loaves from the grocery store and toast them up for cheesy dips like this. I bet adding crab would be tasty too!

    This artichoke dip is something that my whole family would love and I will be adding this to my must make list for when my daughter returns from visiting the grandparents. I would love to try it with the Roasted Garlic Sauce. I am excited to check out these sauces as I have never heard of them before.

    Oh this looks yummy! I’ve never had artichoke dip without spinach in it. This is definitely something I’d like to try. Thank you for sharing this recipe! It would make a great appetizer.

      Thanks! Sometimes spinach just makes it a little watery, so I thought I’d try it without.

    We make a ton of casseroles, usually as a way to clear out the cupboards and freezer of things that have been up there too long. You can make them countless ways, and when you throw cheese on top, the kids will not complain about it. They usually contain a meat, a pasta or rice, some veggies, and condensed soup. These sauces, with the variety of flavors they come in, would be a great substitute for the condensed soup.

      I do that too. I hate to see things go to waste, so sometimes my pastas and casseroles get pretty eclectic!
