			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a class="post_image_link" href="http://www.sidetrackedmoms.com/spinach-artichoke-dip/" title="Permanent link to Spinach Artichoke Dip"><img class="post_image aligncenter frame" src="http://www.sidetrackedmoms.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/Creamy-Artichoke-Spinach-Dip.jpg" width="450" height="338" alt="Post image for Spinach Artichoke Dip" /></a>
</p><p style="text-align: justify;">This is an awesome dip recipe and I love it because it really makes a lot of dip. I get asked to make it all the time. I have a 4-Quart Slow Cooker with a &#8220;Keep Warm&#8221; setting and this recipe makes just the right amount for it. I got the original recipe from <a href="http://www.allrecipes.com" target="_blank">All Recipes.com</a> but I added extra artichokes in my version. Make it in a pretty big pot and then transfer to a crock pot. If you can find them, I really like to serve Tostitos Gold Chips with this dip because they are a thicker chip. But some people like bagel chips or crackers with it as well.</p>
