    Love, love, LOVE this dip! I was never a huge fan of spinach dip much less artichoke, but now I can't enough of it! I am currently making it again for family fourth of july potluck. :

    I've had this recipe in my book for almost a yr now & finally got around to making it. Not a disappointment, wish I had done it sooner for sure. Took a little longer to make than I thought it would, no problem, you learn w/every recipe ;

    A cpl of things I definitely learned w/this recipe; (1 watch your zest, I didn't measure, just "eye balled" it & it ended up overpowering the dish, (2 the seasoning amounts for the pita crisps were too much. I ended up throwing the 1st batch out & making another, hubby said it was way too salty.

    But all in all I really like the pita crisps. I also put out Triscuits for hubby, his fav cracker, and he preferred them w/the dip. I then decided to try a vege, celery, and omgosh! did that help w/the over zesting I did, it made a huge difference. Other vege's will prob work well, too, look forward to experimenting :D

    I finally got around to making this at my daughter's house. I forgot the lemon, so used a little lemon juice. I used Trader Joe's frozen artichokes and this was still an amazing dip. A sure winner!!

    I,ve made it multiple times this past holiday season,Evryone loves it.
    I myself add abit more bacon into the mix,more flavor there. Plus I cut down the amount of the spices going on the pita chips by 20%, it gave the chips a more sutle flavor allowing the dip to stand out more. Thanks Hearty Boys

    This recipe takes little longer to make than some spinach artichoke dips but it is always worth the extra effort for a special party! My guests always ask for this to be made.

    This was easy to prepare and a hit at my Recipe Risk group. The pitas were very good on their own and certainly added to the flavor of the entire recipe. I was hesitant to add the salt in the dip since the bacon and pitas had salt so I tasted the dip at the end of preparation and did not add the salt since I have to watch salt intake.
    I am so sorry you are shown at 2:30am here in CO as I enjoy your program. I hope your not being phased out.

    I have made this dip many times. It's been a hit everytime. It's one you can whip up before you need it (its not quite and zingy as it could be still great though If you make it in advance a bit it has a kick to it. expecially with the marinated artichoke hearts. I have accidently grabbed the plain artrichoke hearts it was still good, just not the kick of the marinated ones. Try it.... I am sure everyone will like this one!

    I made this for a Christmas party, and it was very successful. The seasoned pitas were the best part, but I also served it with a variety of crackers the second day. A nice twist on the classic spinach and artichoke dip.

    I love all these ingredients so I thought this would be delicious but it was just lacking. I think it would have been better with cheddar or jack cheese and served warm. Not a winner

    Loved this recipe, especially the pita chips. I have tried similar recipes, but this has an added zing. The next time I make it, however, I will probably omit the bacon.
