BBQ Dip

Thursday, September 20, 2007

I love cream cheese. Add shredded cheese, bacon, BBQ sauce and some veggies and I’m in heaven. This dip always disappears quickly. I like to serve it with Frito’s scoops.

BBQ Dip – 2 WW pts/2 Tbsp (Original recipe from Kraft.com)
2 pkg. (8 oz. each) cream cheese – I use the 1/3 less fat cream cheese
1/2 cup BBQ sauce
1 pkg. (2.8 oz.) Real Bacon Recipe Pieces
1 small tomato, chopped
1/2 cup chopped green peppers
1/3 cup sliced green onions
1-1/2 cups Shredded Reduced Fat Cheddar Cheese
(I always add chopped tomatoes and cilantro as well)

Spread cream cheese onto large platter or bottom of pizza pan; drizzle with barbecue sauce.

Top with remaining ingredients.

Serve with your favorite crackers or chips.

That sounds yummy! I don’t like goat cheese, but bet it would be good with feta too.

Sounds like a wonderful combo…except like Colleen, I’ve finally come to admit I don’t like goat cheese. Could use more cream cheese I suppose.

This looks delicious! I can’t wait to make it! Although the cheddar cheese is throwing me off though – did it really match in flavor? Do you think something like asiago would work?

I agree Colleen, the cheddar does seem out of place. In all honesty, you couldn’t taste it. The goat cheese / cream cheese mixture and caramelized onions and cranberries are all pretty prominent flavors. I’m sure any shredded cheese would be fine.

Lisa – I’d mix them into the Cranberry mixture or layer them between the cheese and the cranberry layers.
