I've made this twice and made adjustments both times. First time almost as written second time lower fat. First time making it added more bacon because...bacon. Substituted sour cream for the mayo because mayo is gross and greasy. Came out delicious should have left more seeds to make it hotter. Second time lower fat. One reduced fat cream cheese one fat-free. Turkey bacon and fat free greek yogurt instead of mayo/sour cream. I used one cup of reduced fat shredded cheddar/monterey jack blend then grated 1/2 cup of sharp cheddar. You could not tell that it had reduced fat ingredients I still had a ton of taste. Next time a few more seeds to make it even hotter maybe some hot sauce.
Every once in awhile I lose this recipe and I freak out trying to find it. It's phenomenal. Super easy, cheap, everyone loves it. I use pre cooked bacon and jar jalapeños because I'm lazy, and it's still the best thing ever. It's even good cold the next day. Did I say I was lazy?
I made this for the first time this past weekend for a small get together with friends, it was such a huge hit, that we went back out to the store to get the ingredients and had to make more!!! Will have to make a double or triple batch next time!
Awesome dip. Will definitely make this again!
Made it for my jalapeño popper-loving family and they loved this simple alternative. Used sour cream instead of mayo and was delicious. Don't skip the corn - I was hesitant but we all agreed it was a great addition. Thanks for this recipe!
This was absolutely delicious & loved by everyone. I used two jalapeños which was plenty plus added about 1/2 cup more mayo than called for to make it a bit more creamy. A perfect dip for potlucks game night or Super Bowl!
fabulous i used canned jalapenos and a pkg of bacon pieces(not bits) mixed all together and cooked on low in a crock pot was a big hit
I made this exactly as printed. My guests just sat around that dip and gobbled it up. Hardly had room for main course!!!!!!! Next time I will bump up the heat a little. This recipe is now front page of my appetizers go to for company. So easy to prepare.
Used sour cream double instead of mayo. Added two more pieces of bacon. Used 6 jalapeños 2 with the seeds and the heat was perfect. It was a huge hit!
Seemed bland. Added garlic powder crab meat per other's suggestion. Not hot enough. Will add more jalapeños next time.
