Easy Crock pot Spinach Artichoke Dip

Ingredients

• • Cream cheese –  A creamy and tangy spread that makes the dip smooth. You can use Greek yogurt instead for a lighter version or vegan cream cheese if you don’t eat dairy.
  • Sour cream – Adds tanginess and creaminess to the dip. You can replace it with Greek yogurt or a non-dairy sour cream alternative.
  • Shredded mozzarella cheese – Melts nicely and gives a mild, gooey cheese flavor. You can try shredded parmesan cheese, Monterey Jack, or Gouda for a different taste.
  • Fresh spinach –  I use fresh baby spinach. It adds a bright green color and earthy taste. If you don’t have fresh spinach, you can use thawed frozen spinach instead.
  • Artichokes – Give a unique slightly tangy flavor and a soft texture. If you can’t find them, you can use canned or jarred artichoke hearts.
  • Garlic powder – Adds a hint of garlic flavor. You can use fresh minced garlic or garlic salt instead, adjusting the amount to your liking.
  • Onion powder – Adds a mild onion taste. Alternatively, you can use finely chopped fresh onion or onion salt.
  • Salt – Enhances the overall flavor of the dip. Adjust the amount to your preference, considering that some ingredients may already contain salt.

  Optional: Add some red pepper flakes for a little spice.
