Related Recipe: Our Slow Cooker Spinach Artichoke Dip is the perfect dip for a party or get-together. Throw the ingredients in the crock pot and let it do the rest – you’ll have a perfectly creamy, gooey spinach artichoke dip every single time.



















this recipe multiplied several times in a crockpot is always a hit and the pot usually looks like it has been cleaned by folks trying to get the last little bit of it.
Thank you for the nice recipe. Have a great weekend.
How would you make this in the crockpot?
I’m sure you could make this and keep it on the crock pot on warm if you were munching on it for a while. It requires constant stirring on the stove top til everything is melted and mixed together. That would be a little difficult in the slow cooker. But a great way to keep it warm.
My DH is addicted to chips and cheese and has a midnight snack of this a few times a week. How well does this recipe store?
Yes! Ugh so sinful but looks so good, I want it now! Yum!

It will store just fine in an airtight container or tupperware type of dish. Just reheat when ready to eat again! We even love it cold straight from the fridge!! 🙂
Just made this-it’s so delicious! Thanks for the great recipe.
