Ahhh, spring! It's the time when all my favorite veggies are in season at the local farmer's market. Artichokes, broccoli, green beans, spinach ... raw, steamed or cooked, it's all green and good. If you love your crockpot, spring veggies are perfect in savory dishes to serve for lunch, dinner or even as an appetizer. Here are six slow cooker recipes that I think look particularly delectable.

Ratatouille

This spin on a classic French stew is both vegan and gluten-free. The beauty of ratatouille is that you can toss in pretty much whatever veggies you want. It's great alone as a stew or use it as a side dish or even pasta sauce.

Corn and Red Pepper Chowder

You can use almond or soy milk in this chowder recipe to keep it dairy-free, and either fresh or frozen corn is fine. I especially like the combination of cumin, cayenne and paprika for the seasonings.

Spinach and Artichoke Dip

More cheese, please! This iconic appetizer recipe credits its success to a self-stirring crockpot. Plus it has three different kinds of cheese — the feta gives it a really nice zing.
