Move over boring french onion dip–here’s a fantastic new chip dip to try! The flavor combo of bacon, cheddar, and green onions are bold and savory and taste like a loaded baked potato when dipped with a potato chip. Bring this to your next party and enjoy! I found this recipe in a magazine, but can’t remember which one.
Ingredients:
3/4 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
4 oz. cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup sour cream
1/4 cup mayo
1/4 cup bottled roasted red peppers, diced
2 teaspoons Tabasco sauce
Kosher salt, to taste
2 pieces thick-sliced bacon, diced
3 green onions, chopped (about 1/2 cup)
Ridged potato chips for dipping
Directions:
- Place all ingredients (except bacon, green onions, and chips) into a food processor and pulse until fairly smooth.
- In a small non-stick skillet, cook bacon pieces until crisp. Drain well.
- Reserve some bacon bits and chopped green onions for garnish.
- Fold remaining bacon bits and green onions into cheese mixture.
- Chill at least 1 hour.
- Garnish dip with remaining bacon bits and green onions.
- Serve chilled with potato chips.
