Notes
Slow Cooker Spinach and Artichoke Dip Recipe
-Serves approx 12 people (1/4 cup serving size) – however, this can vary-Source: The Healthy Slow Cooker by Judith Finlayson (reprinted with permission)-Frozen artichokes (thawed) can be substituted for canned, you will need about 6 artichoke hearts-My adaptions to this recipe:
I used a full brick of Neufchatel cheese (8 ounces)
I used 2-3 garlic cloves as I knew we’d like a bit more garlic in this
I added as much of the spinach as I could to my slow cooker in the beginning. After the spinach had cooked down a bit, I added the remaining spinach.
