Did I mention how EASY this is to make?!  Just 10 minutes prep time is all that’s required.    It’s the perfect appetizer dip for Superbowl Sunday (or any gathering!).

If you’re not a fan of green onions you can most definitely substitute fresh chives for them in this recipe.

What to serve with loaded baked potato dip:

  • Potato chips
  • Potato wedges / french fries
  • Crackers
  • Celery
  • Carrots
  • Broccoli

To make this dip lower fat, use:

  • Low fat cream cheese
  • Low fat cheddar cheese
  • Low fat sour cream
  • Turkey bacon instead of regular bacon

I always use freshly cracked black pepper in this dip, but I don’t add salt because it tastes plenty salty enough with the cheeses, ranch dressing and bacon.  Add salt (if desired) to what suits your taste buds!

Enjoy!
