Why This Recipe Works

• Quick prep. Five minutes and done
• Classic flavors that always win people over
• Great for gatherings or just a night in

Ingredients:

• 2 cups shredded Parmesan cheese (you can use half Parmesan and half Mozzarella if you want it extra melty)
• 10 oz frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
• 14 oz artichoke hearts, drained and chopped (from a jar or thawed from frozen)
• 2 teaspoons minced garlic
• ⅔ cup sour cream (plain Greek yogurt works too)
• 8 oz cream cheese, softened
• ⅓ cup mayonnaise

Directions:

Step 1: Mix It Up
In a mixing bowl, combine the Parmesan, spinach, and artichokes. Add the garlic, sour cream, cream cheese, and mayo. Stir until well blended.

Step 2: Optional Warm-Up
If you’re in a rush, pour the mixture into a saucepan and warm it over medium-low heat until the cheese melts. This helps speed things up once it’s in the slow cooker, but you can skip this if you’re short on time.

Step 3: Crockpot Time
Transfer the mixture to your slow cooker.
Cook on HIGH for 1 to 2 hours
Or LOW for 3 to 4 hours

Once it’s hot and bubbly, switch to the WARM setting while serving.

Step 4: Serve
Serve straight from the slow cooker or spoon into a bowl. Pairs well with tortilla chips, baguette slices, pretzels, or fresh veggies.

Mom-to-Mom Tips

• Using fresh spinach? Sauté one pound and drain well. It’ll shrink down to about 10 ounces
• Make it ahead by prepping the night before and storing in the fridge. Heat it up when you’re ready
• Leftovers can go in the fridge for up to four days or into the freezer for two months
