Spinach Artichoke Dip

I do not know about everyone else, but...  If I am throwing a party in cold weather I want hot dips.  My favorite of these is Spin(ach)Art(choke) Dip.

After researching and looking for the flavors I want, I came up with this recipe which goes equally as well with a French Baguette or Sourdough.  It goes together so quick.  You can make it in a crock pot, the oven or on the range.  It is even better the second day.  So, do not be afraid to make ahead and cook or reheat in when you need it.
