Creamed spinach isn’t something I make often, but I really do love it. And I discovered it is really a cinch to make in a crock pot. So maybe I’ll start making it more. 🙂
Creamed spinach can be a little bland. But not this one. It has a spicy kick to it from a fresh jalapeno plus some Tabasco sauce and Mexican-flavored Velveeta. Have you tried the Mexican-flavored Velveeta? It’s an awesome way to add flavor and spice to food along with a whole lot of cheese flavor.

This Slow Cooker Creamed Spinach also has 2 whole packages of cream cheese in it. The cream cheese makes it super rich and decadent. Just a little scoop of this creamed spinach will be all you need to feel satisfied.
For flavoring, I’ve added a garlic clove, some onion, plus a little Worcestershire sauce. I find Worcestershire sauce adds great flavor to just about anything savory.
Want to make regular creamed spinach? Here is my basic creamed spinach recipe and here is one flavored withpimento cheese.

How To Make Slow Cooker Jalapeno Creamed Spinach
This is an easy dump and go recipe. Just add all the ingredients to the slow cooker, cover and cook on LOW for 4 hours. Be sure to stir it halfway through so it doesn’t burn around the edges.

Recipe Tip
Be sure to squeeze as much of the liquid out of the spinach as possible so that your creamed spinach will not be watery.
Storage
Leftovers will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4 days. Reheat in the microwave.
