What to serve with jalapeno popper dip?
Serve with tortilla chips, crackers, or sliced baguette. It is also really tasty with cut up veggies such as carrots and celery.
I like to put out a tray of both so everyone has lots of options. The veggies are great for those trying to watch their carbs and the crackers are perfect for everyone else.
Everyone loves this dip and you can’t go wrong with it. Serve what you like the best and be prepared to watch this dip disappear.

Check your ingredients….step 3 says to mix in cheddar cheese, which you do not have listed in the ingredients needed. I see it in the pictures, but cheddar and the amount are missing from the list. Incomplete…so, I’m going to guess…1 cup?
Thanks for letting me know – I have corrected the post and the recipe. It’s 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese for this recipe. Thank you!
I love that this recipe has a bit of a kick, but not so much you lose the flavors of the rest of the ingredients. I made this for my work Christmas party and everyone loved it!
