Three Cheese Bacon Dip – An Irresistible Appetizer For All

Three cheese bacon dip is one of the easiest and most popular dips at any party.

Most cheesy dips require a block or two of cream cheese. However, this dip uses a unique and delicious ingredient.

Instead of thick and dense cream cheese, this three cheese bacon dip uses cottage cheese as one of the main ingredients. It blends perfectly with the sharp cheddar and Parmesan cheeses, making for an overall lighter dip.

And what would any dip be without bacon and green onions?

Because it has a lighter consistency it is important to let this three cheese bacon dip sit for 10 minutes prior to serving. It allows the texture to thicken enough to be scooped perfectly on a tortilla or pita chip.

While the dish rests, you can make your own pita chips in minutes! See: How To Make Homemade Pita Chips. So next time you need a quick and easy appetizer, give this one a try!
