super cheesy spinach and artichoke crockpot dip
I made this for the first time ever this past week for a food day at work. Two people immediately asked for the recipe, so I guess it was good! :) What little was left disappeared pretty quickly at home. Just a note - all recipes I've seen for this type of dip recommend squeezing the spinach dry. I didn't. The extra moisture helps keep this super cheesy recipe from getting too "tight". For the best taste, make this the night before, heat it through to melt the cheese & refrigerate it in the crock pot (if a unit with a removable crock). The flavors marry together beautifully!

3Thaw and drain the spinach; set aside to drain further.
