Bacon Jalapeno Popper Dip Recipe
Bacon-wrapped jalapeño poppers are one of those quintessential party appetizers that never go out of style. Rather than going to the work of hollowing out oodles of jalapeño peppers, meticulously filling them, and then wrapping them with bacon, I made a dip that takes advantage of jalapeño popper flavor minus the work. This jalapeno and bacon dip is incredibly fast and easy. I had it assembled in less than 5 minutes, which is great if you’re hosting an event or party and already have a million things to do. Even better, you can assemble it up to 24 hours in advance. The creamy factor of the dip is out of control. Cream cheese, Greek yogurt, mayo, two kinds of cheese. Creamy, cheesy amazingness going on. I used light or reduced-fat products wherever possible, including turkey bacon, and no one missed a thing. The dip is the perfect unique side dish or appetizer for Thanksgiving, Friendsgiving, holiday entertaining, New Year’s Eve parties, Super Bowl, or game day parties. You can never go wrong with bacon and cheese. I can’t wait for this to make an appearance at my holiday parties.
Bacon Jalapeño Popper Dip Ingredients
To make this creamy jalapeño dip with bacon, you’ll need:
Cream cheese – Use full-fat, brick-style cream cheese, not cream cheese from a tub Greek yogurt – Sour cream will also work Mayonnaise Spices (ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, pepper) – You can also add garlic powder and onion powder for even more flavor Shredded cheese (I used Monterrey Jack and sharp cheddar cheese) Canned diced jalapeños – May sub sliced fresh jalapenos.
