-Frozen artìchokes (thawed) can be substìtuted for canned, you wìll need about 6 artìchoke hearts

-My adaptìons to thìs recìpe:

I used a full brìck of Neufchatel cheese (8 ounces)
I used 2-3 garlìc cloves as ì knew we’d lìke a bìt more garlìc ìn thìs
I added as much of the spìnach as ì could to my slow cooker ìn the begìnnìng. After the spìnach had cooked down a bìt, ì added the remaìnìng spìnach.
