Swiss Cheese, Bacon & Jalapeno Dip

Swiss cheese, Bacon & Jalapeno Dip-Joseph Sciascia

Dip, dip hooray! A party just doesn’t seem like a party if there isn’t a good dip around. You will love my recipe for Swiss cheese, bacon & jalapeno dip, not spicy at all since there are pickled jalapeno slices in it, gives it a mellow flavor.  Slather this delicious spread on toasted baguette slices, crackers or veggies and dance the night away because this will satisfy your party food cravings.

Ingredients

6 slices of bacon, cooked, drained on paper towels and chopped

1 cup of mayonnaise

4 ounces of softened cream cheese

10 slices of bottled jalapenos (nacho slices), chopped

2 tablespoons of jalapeno brine, from the bottled jalapeno slices

¼ teaspoon of black pepper

1 4 oz. jar of drained chopped pimentos

3 tablespoon chopped chives

2 ½ cups finely shredded Swiss cheese (about 11 ounces)

Directions

In a medium bowl mix mayonnaise, softened cream cheese, chopped jalapenos, jalapeno brine, black pepper together until well incorporated

Mix in the chopped pimentos, chopped chives and the Swiss cheese

Refrigerate for 2 hours before serving, can be made a couple of days in advance…it is really good the day after, if you can wait, the bacon flavor really comes out.

Serve with crackers
