Ingredients
Scale

- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup sour cream
- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- ½ cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- ¼ tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the spinach: If using frozen spinach, thaw completely and squeeze out excess moisture. If using fresh, chop finely and sauté until wilted.
- Chop the artichokes: Drain and chop the canned artichoke hearts into small, bite-sized pieces.
- Combine ingredients: Add cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise to the crockpot. Mix in the spinach, artichokes, mozzarella, Parmesan, garlic, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper.
- Slow cook: Cover and cook on low for 2 hours, stirring once halfway through.
- Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley and serve directly from the crockpot or transfer to a bread bowl. Keep warm on the crockpot’s “warm” setting.
Notes
- Make it vegan: Use dairy-free cream cheese, sour cream, and shredded cheese substitutes.
- Add protein: Mix in shredded chicken or crab meat after 1 hour of cooking for a heartier dip.
- Spice it up: Increase red pepper flakes or add diced jalapenos for a kick.
- Leftovers: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave or crockpot.
