Need a simple go-to appetizer?  My Artichoke Cheese Bake never disappoints a crowd.

It really is so simple to make, just mix the ingredients, put it in a baking dish and pop it in the oven.  Really people go crazy for this stuff!  Try it the next time someone asks you to bring an appetizer to a party!
