White Cheddar Horseradish Dip

White Cheddar Horseradish Dip is ready in 5 minutes, has just 4 ingredients and is full of flavor with sharp white cheddar cheese and tangy horseradish! Topped with finely diced vegetables and served with crackers for an easy appetizer.

A couple of years ago, Troy and I went to a Christmas party with the teachers that he works with and we had the most delicious horseradish cheese dip there. I asked around who had made it and it was made by one of the male teachers at my husband's school. I was impressed! When he told me that it was made with Greek yogurt, I was sold!

A super tasty dip that was made lighter with yogurt instead of mayo? Sign me up! I put it on my list of recipes to make and recently saw it on the list and could not get it out of my head. Unfortunately, that teacher no longer works with my husband so I could not ask how to make the recipe. I had to go by memory and I am happy to say that the dip turned out awesome.

In the recipe I had tried at the party, yellow cheddar cheese was used but for this variety, I wanted to use a high quality extra-sharp white cheddar and I am so glad that I did. It is so good and full of flavor! This recipe takes about 5 minutes to make and requires no cooking. It can be served in the winter, fall, spring or summer.

It only requires 4 ingredients for the dip plus the toppings. I thought my daughter may not like it because of the horseradish but she loved it. It is flavorful without being too spicy. My husband and I both agreed that this is better than the original version. So good!

It would be perfect for summer entertaining and serving on a platter outside for a bonfire or to pair with a glass of wine. I can totally see Troy and I sharing this appetizer in our backyard after our kids go to bed with a glass of wine over great conversation. #dreamingofsummer We can also enjoy this dip during family movie nights with the kids. Adalyn loved snacking on this after work one day with Troy and I. I love that she loved the horseradish! She wanted more and more dip.

To make this dish a little bit more "Amanda approved", I topped it with some finely chopped vegetables. I went with cucumbers and bell peppers for crunch and with green onions for flavor. This adds a little bit of nutrition to the dish and makes it look so much prettier than just having a white dip. Feel free to use whatever vegetables you have on hand.
