Make it lactose-friendly
- 16 ounces (450 g) cream cheese → lactose-free cream cheese
- ¾ cup (180 ml) heavy cream (use half milk, if desired) → lactose-free heavy cream or full-fat coconut cream
- ⅓ cup (80 ml) grated Parmesan cheese → lactose-free or aged hard cheese (naturally lower lactose)
- ⅔ cup (160 ml) shredded Monterey Jack cheese → lactose-free or aged hard cheese (naturally lower lactose)
Steps
- In a food processor fitted with a metal blade, process the cream cheese, cream, Parmesan cheese, and garlic powder until smooth and creamy. Add the spinach and process until thoroughly mixed. Add the artichokes and process just until coarsely chopped.
- Turn the mixture into a 3½-quart electric slow cooker; smooth the top.
- Cover and cook on the high heat setting for 1¼–1½ hours, until hot in the center. Sprinkle the top evenly with the Jack cheese and spoon the salsa in a ring around the inside edges of the slow cooker. Cover and continue heating on high 15 minutes longer, or until the cheese is melted.
- Reduce the heat to the low setting and serve warm with crackers or tortilla chips for dipping. Refrigerate any leftovers.
