How to Make Spinach Artichoke Dip in Crockpot

Step 1 – In a 4 quart slow cooker, combine the spinach, artichoke hearts, cream cheese, mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese, garlic and milk.

Step 2 – Carefully stir to combine, as the slow cooker will be very full. Season with pepper.

Step 3 – Cover and cook on high for 2 hours, or until all the cheeses are melted. Stir to make sure that all of the ingredients are combined.

Step 4 – You can also cook on low but adjust the cooking time to 3-4 hours. Let rest for about 30 minutes before serving.

How long to Cook?

Cooking the spinach dip in the crock pot takes about 2 hours when cooking on high. If you prefer you can also cook on low for about 3 hours. Once the cheese is melted and the ingredients are warm, then it is ready to be served.

Why is my Spinach Dip too thick?

If your spinach dip is to thick, then you may need to add some liquid to it. But you have to add the right liquid. Since milk is already part of the ingredients, it would a great liquid to add in a little to change the consistency.

I like to add in about a tablespoon at a time to thin out the texture.

Serving Suggestions

• Chips – Serve with tortilla chips, crackers, or sliced baguette. Pita chips are also a great option. I like to have an assortment of crackers when making this dip.
• Vegetables – It is also really tasty with cut up veggies such as carrots and celery sticks. I like to put out a tray of both so everyone has lots of options.
• Potatoes – Slice some potatoes or French fries to serve with the dip.

The veggies are great for those trying to watch their carbs and the crackers are perfect for everyone else.

Everyone loves this dip as it is so delicious and easy to make. Serve what you like the best and be prepared to watch this dip disappear.
