Jalapeno Popper Dip
Jalapeno Popper Dip is rich, creamy, spicy and cheesy, tastes like your favorite fried appetizer but is healthier and is ready in just 25 minutes!
I am a huge fan of jalapeno poppers and pin pretty much anything that says the word jalapeno in it. I finally got around to making a jalapeno popper dip that I thought of forever ago. I wanted it to be spicy and super cheesy and it turned out perfectly! It is a healthier recipe than many others and uses Greek yogurt to lighten it up instead of mayonnaise. I think it turned out awesome!
This recipe would be perfect to bring to a party or to have during a football game. With The Big Game right around the corner, I am having fun thinking of different recipes that would be so much fun to eat during the game. This one definitely fits the bill. I am not as much of a football fan as I am of a snack fan during big football games. Especially being pregnant, I am all about the food!
This dip is super easy to make taking just about 5 minutes of prep time while mixing the ingredients together, topping with cheese and bacon and then throwing in the oven. You will have more time to spend making other recipes or getting your house ready for a party. I also love this dip served with carrots and celery for a healthier dipping tool.
I served this to my family for an impromptu football appetizer party one night and they all enjoyed it! It did not make it to 8 servings for us... It was a little too addictive. To be honest, you can also mix all of the ingredients together and just microwave it. I tried it that way too and it turned out just as great.
