This easy slow cooker recipe for creamy, cheesy spinach dip is perfect for any party. It takes just minutes to make and is a crowd pleaser!
You know what I love? Those occasions where there’s just a bunch of different appetizers and finger foods and you can just pick all night. This recipe is great for those parties. Make a batch and serve with a bag of tortilla chips and you’re set.
You’ll just need a few ingredients to make this recipe–frozen spinach, onion soup mix, parmesan cheese, sour cream, garlic and cream cheese.
I always buy the fresh spinach at Costco in those huge bags. Because I know that I won’t ever finish it before it goes bag I usually put it in the freezer immediately. Then I use it in green smoothies and recipes like this. You’ll need 20 ounces of frozen spinach. I measure it out with my little scale and then put it in a colander. I run warm water over the spinach for a minute and then blot all the excess water out of it with paper towels.
Then you’ll put the spinach in the slow cooker along with all the other ingredients and give a little stir. I like to use the casserole crock for this recipe but really any slow cooker will do fine. I prefer to use a 2 or 3 quart slow cooker for dips. Turn the slow cooker on high for a couple of hours and you’re set. I like to serve this dip with tortilla chips but you could also serve it with little slices of a baguette or vegetables.
