Go guilt-free over the holidays with a dip recipe that will surely wow any crowd. In Episode 6 of our Make it with Hamilton Beach series, host Miranda Malisani shows us how to whip up a delicious bowl of spinach and artichoke dip using the Hamilton Beach White and Stainless 10 Quart Slow Cooker and MultiBlend Blender. The kicker? This dip is dairy-free!
