Slow Cooker Hot Spinach Cheese Dip
Who doesn't love dip? This hot, cheesy dip is great for tortilla chips, pita bread or crackers. It's also filling and healthy, so it's great to have on hand for snacks at home or to take to a pot luck or serve at a game-watching party. The kids will love eating their veggies with this yummy dip!
A mixture of healthful spinach and artichoke hearts combined with cheeses is not only great for dip and appetizers, but goes well as a snack on whole grain breads or crackers at any time of the day.
