Kitchen Tips
- Dice tomatoes into small pieces. It makes picking up on a cracker so much easier!
- Lettuce should also be chopped into small pieces for easy dipping
- Use pre-cooked bacon crumbles to save time or cook bacon and crumble yourself
Fridge & Freezer Magic
Store dip in refrigerator covered for 3-5 days. Dip can be enjoyed hot or cold
I do not recommend freezing dip as cream cheese and sour cream do not tend to freeze well.
