Ingredients
- 10 ounces spinach roughly chopped and long obvious stems removed, fresh
- 14 ounce artichoke hearts drained and roughly chopped (or a 10 to 14-ounce bag frozen artichoke hearts, thawed, drained, and roughly chopped, jarred
- 8 ounces full-fat cream cheese cubed (from a block of cream cheese)
- 1 cup sour cream full fat Greek yogurt may be substituted, full fat
- ½ cup mayonnaise full fat
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
- ½ cup Parmesan Cheese shredded
- 3 to 5 cloves garlic peeled and finely minced
- 1 teaspoon salt or to taste
- ½ teaspoon black pepper or to taste, freshly ground
Instructions
- To a 6 to 7-quart slow cooker, add all the ingredients. Tip - For easier cleanup, you may wish to consider using a slow cooker liner. Stir as best you can.
- Place the lid on top and slow cook on LOW heat for 1 hour.
- Remove the lid, and now you can easily stir all the ingredients together.
- Place the lid back on and slow cook on LOW for 1 additional hour, or until the dip is hot and bubbly. Serve with bread, crackers, tortilla chips, veggie sticks, or as desired.
- Make in Advance - The dip can be made a few hours in advance of when you plan to serve it. Keep it in the slow cooker on the low setting. If you have a 'warm' setting, use it. Note that the longer you let the dip actually cook on the low setting, the thicker it will get which is why I don't recommend making it more than a couple hours in advance.
- Storage - Extra dip will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 5 days. Reheat gently in the microwave, or as desired. I do not recommend freezing leftover dip. Read the blog post for recipe ideas for How To Repurpose Leftover Dip.

Notes
- Spinach - I used a 10 ounce bag of fresh spinach for this recipe. It's easier and less fuss. If you want or need to use frozen spinach, use a 10 ounce package. Thaw it and then wring out the water extremely well with many, many paper towels. If you don't, your dip could be watery and soupy.
- Artichokes Hearts - Which ever type you use, they need to be drained and roughly chopped.
- Jarred (or canned) artichoke hearts – If using these, look for water packed rather than oil packed to keep things healthier and less greasy and oily. Regardless, you’ll need to drain the liquid.
- Marinated artichoke heart – These tend to fall into the oil-based type and I suggest something more plain. You’re paying for the ‘marinade’ liquid which is going to be drained off so it’s a waste.
- Frozen artichoke hearts – They’re my favorite ‘form’ of artichoke hearts because they’re flash frozen without oil, they thaw easily and without a mess (unlike frozen spinach, see above) and they’re usually more economical than the jarred artichoke hearts. If you have a Trader Joe’s in your area, their frozen artichoke hearts are my favorite!
