Tips For Making This Recipe

Make Sure You Don’t Overcook Your Dip

Once the frozen spinach artichoke dip is bubbly and hot all the way through, set your Crockpot to warm! Overcooking the dip can break the spinach down and make the dip watery. To fix this, cook the dip uncovered for a few minutes to allow the excess liquid to evaporate.

Fix the Runny Dip

If the excess liquid from the artichoke hearts or spinach made the slow cooker spinach artichoke dip watery, you can stir in more cream cheese or shredded cheese to thicken it.

Get Creative with Your Leftovers

You can stir your leftover dip into freshly cooked pasta, use it as a filling for stuffed chicken breasts, or top a pre-baked pizza crust with it!

Slow Cooker Spinach Artichoke Dip Recipe FAQs

Is frozen or fresh spinach better for dip?

It’s up to you since you can throw both frozen and fresh spinach directly into the slow cooker without any extra preparation. However, if you’re really worried about the dip’s consistency, you can thaw frozen spinach or cook fresh spinach down before using it.

What size Crockpot for this spinach artichoke dip recipe?

You can use a 6-quart or even a 3-quart Crockpot for this recipe. My advice? Pick a size where your Crockpot spinach dip with frozen spinach fills up to only 3/4 of the insert.

Can spinach dip be made ahead of time?

Yup! After combining everything, cover the Crockpot and place it in the fridge for up to 48 hours. You can cook it straight from the fridge; just extend the cooking time.

Does frozen spinach dip freeze well?

Personally, I’d rather not freeze my spinach and artichoke dip since the ingredients might separate once it’s thawed. For leftovers, just transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 4 days. To serve, reheat on the stovetop over medium-low heat, adding more cheese to thicken or milk to thin it out if needed.

What can I serve with Crockpot spinach artichoke dip with frozen spinach?

You can serve this slow cooker artichoke dip with pasta chips, French bread slices, crackers, pretzels, or even veggie sticks for a more wholesome option! Try it with baby carrots and celery sticks!
