Let’s talk about what you’ll need to make it:
Crockpot Spinach Artichoke Dip Ingredients:
- FROZEN SPINACH: Make sure that the frozen spinach is well thawed and any excess water is removed with paper towels.
- ARTICHOKE HEARTS: Canned artichoke hearts in water not marinated artichoke hearts. Marinated artichoke hearts will add other flavors to the dip.
- SHALLOTS: Will add subtle onion flavor.
- GARLIC: I prefer to use freshly minced garlic.
- MAYONNAISE
- SOUR CREAM: Adds creaminess and a bit of acidity.
- MOZZARELLA/ PARMESAN: I recommend grating both cheeses yourself for the best flavor and texture of the dip.
- CREAM CHEESE: Helps make the dip rich and creamy.
