Swiss and Bacon Dip
Ingredients
- 8 slices center-cut bacon, chopped
- 8 oz. cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 C. mayonnaise
- 2 rounded tsp. Dijon mustard
- 1 1/2 C. shredded Swiss cheese
- 3 green onions, washed, ends removed, chopped
- 1/2 C. smoked almonds, coarsely chopped
- Baby carrots for dipping
- Selection of spiced flatbreads, cocktail-size
- pumpernickel or rye breads, or sliced whole-grain baguettes for dipping
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. In a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, brown the bacon. Remove crisp bacon bits and drain on paper towels. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Swiss cheese and green onions with the cooked bacon. Transfer to a shallow small casserole or baking dish and bake until golden and bubbly at the edges, about 15 to 18 minutes. Top with the chopped almonds. Place the dip on a platter and surround warm casserole with carrots and breads for dipping.
