This bacon sun-dried tomato dip is amazingly creamy and delicious. It will be a huge hit every time you serve it!
Bacon sun-dried tomato dip is perfect for parties, barbecues, and all kinds of get togethers. This dip takes only minutes to make, and you can also make it a day or two ahead of time. My family loves this dip, and I hope you and your family will enjoy it as much as we do!
Let’s talk about the creamy base for our dip!
We combine 3 ingredients to create the creamy base for this delicious dip. We use cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise to make this dip. This awesome combination creates an amazingly creamy and tasty dip. For the best results, you’ll want to start with softened cream cheese. Softened cream cheese will be easier to beat and combine with the other ingredients and will help ensure your dip will come out smooth and creamy. I recommend using full fat cream cheese and full fat sour cream to make this dip. When choosing mayonnaise, you’ll want to check the ingredients to make sure there is no added sugar or oils you don’t want. Chosen Foods makes an avocado oil mayonnaise and that is one of my go-to choices when buying mayo. You can also make homemade keto mayonnaise! It’s amazingly creamy and delicious and amazingly easy to make!
What other ingredients go into this bacon sun-dried tomato dip?
To our mixture of cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise, we add just a few simple yet incredibly delicious ingredients to make this dip. We start by adding bacon and sun-dried tomatoes. I like to make my bacon in the oven, but I also sometimes dice my raw bacon, then saute it in the pan. I then save the bacon grease and use it to make all kinds of dishes! Sun-dried tomatoes add amazing flavor and texture to this dip. For seasoning, we add both garlic powder and onion powder. We also add smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. I love the smoky aspect the smoked paprika adds, but you can use regular paprika if you’d prefer. This is a mild dip. If you’d like to add some heat, you could add some red pepper flakes or a few dashes of your favorite hot sauce.
What are some ways I can serve this bacon sun-dried tomato dip?
You have some awesome low carb options for serving this dip. It’s perfect to serve as an appetizer or as a delicious snack. I love serving dips like this with raw vegetables. Some great low carb options include broccoli, cauliflower, celery, cucumbers, mushrooms, radishes, and sliced bell peppers. Carrots are a bit higher in carbs, but when eaten in moderation, they’re a great choice as well. This dip is also perfect served with keto crackers, cheese whisps, and pork rinds. Some other fun options include using cheese slices for dippers or meats such as pepperoni and salami. You can also serve this dip as a topping for burgers, brats, keto sandwiches, and lettuce wraps. It’s also delicious as a creamy topping for cooked vegetables. You can also use this dip as a spread for chaffles, keto biscuits, or keto English muffins.
