Happy New Year Everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful New Year's Eve.
I certainly did. I spent the evening at home with my beau, some neighbors, delicious appetizers, and copious amounts of cheap sparkling wine.
While the wine left something to be desired, the company and the food (provided by yours truly) did not disappoint.
The star of the show was undoubtedly the Baked Artichoke Dip with Bacon and Goat Cheese.
It was eagerly eaten by all slathered on toasted baguette, which of course had received a brush of bacon grease and a sprinkle of salt. Delicious! Seriously, this dip is so good, and I don't even really like artichoke dip.
Random side note, I actually kind of hate the phrase "and I don't even really like... " I mean really, how does my initial dislike for a certain food convey how tasty this version of it is? I mean what if the previous versions I had were simply subpar? Also, since you have no idea what my tastes are, how does my previous dislike for something clarify why this recipe is so tasty?
Anyway, I digress. This dip is fanfuckingtastic, and you should make it immediately. To share with your friends... or your cat... or by yourself in the bathtub.
Recipe after the jump!!
