WARM BACON CHEESE DIP
What I love about football food is that no one judges it. I mean if Pigs in a Blanket aren’t the most humble food you know, I don’t know what is.
It doesn’t have to be pretty. Hands are the preferred utensil. And you don’t find people standing around the food table mentally calculating calories and serving sizes. It’s just about down and dirty, full of flavor food.
This Warm Bacon Cheese Dip is just that. Nothing in this world can beat soft sourdough bread scooping up warm creamy dip filled with bacon and cheese. I mean really. Beat that.
My family claimed it as an instant favorite. It spends an hour in the oven, gently warming up and teasing your tastebuds with its aroma. The bread gets slightly toasted and the dip gets cheesy and warm.
This dip has bacon, onions, cheese, and is seasoned perfectly.
Hollow out a sourdough round saving the inside pieces to use for dipping. Please use sourdough. The texture and taste just can’t be beat by anything else. Fill the bread with your creamy mixture, wrap in heavy duty foil and bake on a low heat for an hour.
Um…it’s addicting. Try to stop eating it.
