Hot Parmesan and Artichoke Dip

My Mom made a delicious dip similar to this often when I was younger, so I have tweaked her recipe and made it my own. This is one my favorite dips to make and the most requested appetizer when I host girls’ night! It can be made in the oven, but I prefer the slow cooker.

Beat cream cheese, dressing (or mayo) and sour cream in a bowl until smooth. You can do this directly in the slowcooker insert or oven-safe dish (I use my Dutch oven).

Stir in 1/2 cup of the parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder (if using), 2 tablespoons of the green onion and artichokes.

Heat in the slow cooker on low for 2 hours (stir occasionally) or in the oven at 350 degrees for 30-45 minutes. Garnish with remaining parmesan and green onions. Makes about 2 cups.

We love this dip on big, organic blue corn chips. But it is also delicious on hunks of bread or pita bread wedges.
