Tips
- Looking for the perfect way to serve a variety of dips for your party? I’ve heard great reviews on this triple slow cooker!
- To Keep Dip Warm for a Party: Use a small, dip-sized slow cooker to keep your dip at the appropriate temperature throughout your event.
- The key to doing this well is to make sure it’s cooked through and completely warmed prior to adding it to the crock pot. Then you’ll set your slow cooker to warm to keep it at the perfect temperature! Works like a charm!
- Shred your own cheese! Don’t buy pre-shredded cheese for your dips. Bagged cheese is covered in a floury substance to keep it from clumping, and it prevents it from melting into the smooth, creamy goodness we all know and love.

Veggie dip, salsa, and homemade French Onion Dip tend to be the most popular dip recipes around here!
