Easy, cheesy, tasty and perfect as an appetizer for your next party – this Artichoke Cheese Bread needs to be on your must try list!
Cheese Bread
I tested out a new easy idea I had from combining a few different recipes and love how it turned out. This literally takes 5 minutes to whip up and then it goes right into the oven. And let me tell you, it’s got just the right amount of cheese and crunch to make you want to eat it all up!
I can’t resist a good bread or cheese. So this combo is absolute dreamy.
If you like cheesy bread, you might like these recipes too:
- Garlic Cheese Pull Apart Bread
- Pão de Queijo – Brazilian Cheese Bread
Here’s what you need and how to make it:
I have seen other recipes that call for shredded cheddar cheese too. I like it this way – kind of a different take on traditional cheese bread. And can we talk about artichokes for a second? I always forget how good they are until I have them. I need to make more with artichokes. Yum!
Cheesy Bread Recipe
Piping hot out of the oven is the best way to serve this bread recipe:
Artichoke Cheese Bread
Ingredients
- 1 c mayonnaise
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 2 c mozzarella and parmesan cheese blend finely shredded
- 14 oz artichoke hearts drained and chopped
- 8 oz water chestnuts drained and chopped
- 1 loaf French bread sliced in half lengthwise
Instructions
- Mix all ingredients together except for bread.
- Spread on 2 halves of bread.
- Bake at 375 for 20 minutes.
Nutrition
You can also turn your oven to high broil and watch it closely to get the cheesy topping crisp and more brown if you prefer it that way. But make sure that you don’t let it go too long because it burns fast!
If you make this cheese bread for a party, it’ll be gone quickly. And people will be asking for the recipe. Trust me.

I’ve made this for a good 25 + years… Only I do the Green Chili Bread.
1 loaf French Bread
OR
Garlic Bread
1 can 7oz diced Green Chili’s w/juice
OR
1 can 7 oz diced Jalapeno’s a Hotter –
1 bag 12 oz shredded Mozzarella Cheese
1/4 cup mayo
Mix green chili, cheese and mayo.
Spread on sliced bread and broil until bubbly.
I broil my bread first, then spread, and re-broil until cheese has melted…

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I forgot all about this recipe until just now. I used to make these all the time for parties about 20 years ago. The recipe is so simple and everyone loved it. These are about to make a comeback at parties again. Oh Yeah!

Artichoke dip is one of my most favorite appetizers! Love the idea of putting it directly on the bread and baking it. I am drooling over this one.
Mique says
Thanks Leigh Anne! I looove artichoke dip too. This one is simple but hits the spot. ;)
Cate M says
Could you make this separately so that people could put their own cheesy goodness on their own bread??
Mique says
Hi Cate- you could make it separately if you wanted to. ;) Just put it in a oven safe dish or in a bread bowl even.
