Looking for an easy appetizer or snack idea? My Slow Cooker Salsa Verde Corn Dip fits the bill and is sure to please! Low maintenance and able to be made ahead of time, you simply can’t ask more of this delicious dip!

Anyone can make this slow cooker dip as you simply add cream cheese, salsa verde, onion and spices to your slow cooker and allow them to melt together. Two and a half hours later, you add the rest of the dip ingredients – Monterey Jack cheese, cherry tomatoes and cilantro – and stir to combine this crowd pleasing dip.

Who knew just nine ingredients stirred together could taste so good? Whenever I take this Slow Cooker Salsa Verde Corn Dip to parties or get togethers, it always receives rave reviews. It’ll be our secret that it took just minutes to add everything to the slow cooker to be party ready!

TIP: Don’t hesitate to double – or triple! – this recipe to feed a crowd. If you do, both options will easily fit in a six quart or larger slow cooker.

What to Serve with Slow Cooker Salsa Verde Corn Dip

The choice is yours as to what you’d like to pair with this warm, creamy dip. I think that this corn dip is perfectly paired with tortilla chips but if you’re looking for a healthier alternative, your favorite veggies would work just as well. Carrots, celery and even snap peas are all great choices as a vehicle for dip delivery to your eagerly awaiting mouth!

If you’re looking for additional easy dip recipes to round out your appetizer spread, look no further! My two ingredient Pesto Yogurt Dip is perfect alongside fresh vegetables. My Yogurt Dill Vegetable Dip is a non-negotiable at our house and is always at the ready.

And of course, then there’s my Creamy Baked Double Cheese and Spinach Dip which is the true definition of comfort food served on a tortilla chip!

How to Make Slow Cooker Salsa Verde Corn Dip

[1] Spray insert of slow cooker with nonstick spray. Add salsa verde, corn, onion, garlic, cumin and cream cheese.

TIP: I like to make this recipe in this slow cooker – it comes in 4, 6 or 8 quart options – or using the slow cooker function of my Instant Pot. If using your Instant Pot, you’ll want to use the tempered glass lid instead of the top that comes with it and is used for pressure cooking.

[2] Stir to combine.

[3] Cover and cook on HIGH for 2.5 hours.

[4] Add Monterey Jack cheese, tomato and cilantro.

[5] Stir to combine.

TIP: Be sure to refrigerate any leftovers. This easy corn dip reheats well in either the slow cooker or microwave.
