🥓Hot Bacon Dip
Hot Bacon Dip- Easy Game Day Food-Easy Football Appetizers
Ingredients:
* 8 ounces cream cheese softened
* 1 cup sour cream
* 1/2 cup mayo
* 1 1/2 cups freshly shredded cheddar cheese – freshly shredded is the absolute best. I use this cheese shredder HERE and its a breeze to shred up as little or as much as you need and its dishwasher safe too! Thousands of amazing reviews and its for good reason! This is a Crazy Busy Mama kitchen must!
* 8-10 slices bacon cooked and crumbled/diced (reserve some for topping) I love to use this microwaveable Bacon Tray HERE makes up to a pound of bacon in your microwave without all the mess! Its my favorite! Love how it traps all the bacon grease at the bottom of the tray and keeps your bacon from drenching in it.
* 4 green onions thinly sliced
* 2 cloves garlic minced (1 teaspoon)
* 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
* Pinch of black pepper
Directions:
Mix softened cream cheese with sour cream, mayo, add garlic, pinch of pepper and red pepper flakes (this is optional as it does add a bit of heat) cheddar cheese and cooked bacon and green onions sliced
Pour into an oven safe dish and bake at 375 for 20 mins or until bubbly
And serve with your favorite crackers or tortilla chips or if trying to keep it low carb try celery or an assortment of veggies! I did crackers and tortilla chips check out my spread!
This easy game day snack football appetizer will for sure be a favorite!
Make sure to save this one so you can reference back to it easy! But should come with a warning… its quite deliciously addicting!
