Ingredients

  • 1 can (14 ounces) artichoke heart quarters, drained and coarsely chopped
  • 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, cubed
  • 4 medium green onions, sliced (1/4 cup)

  • 4 teaspoons lemon juice
  • French baguette or cocktail rye bread slices, for serving, if desired

Steps

  • 1
    Spray inside of 1- to 2 1/2-quart slow cooker with cooking spray.
  • 2
    Place all ingredients except bread in cooker.
  • 3
    Cover and cook on low heat setting 1 to 1 1/4 hours (or high heat setting 30 to 45 minutes) or until cream cheese is melted. Stir until cheese is smooth.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Everyone will love this delicious, rich spread. Because of the richness of the cheeses, however, the spread may start to separate, and little puddles could appear on the surface. So stir the spread occasionally, and it will look as good as new.
  • tip 2
    Fresh crabmeat isn't available to everyone all year around, so that is why we suggest using the imitation crabmeat. The shredded imitation crabmeat for salad is perfect for this dip. But you can use drained canned crabmeat, or if you are fortunate, use shredded cooked fresh crabmeat.
