However, if you are making in a small slow cooker, then you could add all your ingredients to the slow cooker and then place the slow cooker in the fridge until you are ready to serve.
Do I have to use artichokes in this dip?
While we really love the taste and texture that comes from adding in artichokes, they can be optional if you either know that you don’t like them or can’t find them.
Just proceed with the recipe as directed without them.
