Chef's Notes

Salt to your preference. Cheeses and bacons are going to add saltiness and based on what you use, like a low sodium bacon, that will affect the final saltiness.

Fantastic dip. Making it again for Super Bowl.

Maryanne ★ 5.0/5

Made this today. I used sliced jalapeños in a jar that I always have on hand since my husband uses them on his sandwiches. Anyway, I chopped some up and let me tell you. This was gone in no time. I wanted to test it before the holidays. It will definitely make an appearance. Thank you. Love your stuff.
