Recipe Description

Cheesy, gooey, and full of bacon, this dip is outta this world!

Preparation Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Slice the top quarter off the loaf of bread and set aside. Carefully hollow out the inside, leaving a 1-inch shell. Cube removed bread and set aside for dipping.

Combine remaining ingredients in a large bowl and spoon into the bread bowl. Place on an ungreased baking sheet and cover with the reserved top quarter of the loaf to prevent the dip from becoming too brown while baking.

Bake for 45 minutes or until heated through. Serve with bread cubes and crackers.

Ingredients

1 whole Round Loaf Of Bread
8 ounces, fluid Monterey Jack Cheese (shredded)
4 ounces, fluid Parmesan Cheese, Shredded
1 cup Mayonnaise
¼ cups Finely Diced Onion
7 pieces Bacon, Diced And Fried
1 clove Garlic, Minced
¼ teaspoons Red Pepper Flakes (optional)

This dip was fantastic! It was easy to make and all our guests loved it for a summer cookout.

Made this for a party yesterday and it was fabulous! My bread did overbake, though, before the cheese was melted so next time I’ll probably wrap it in foil to keep that from happening. I will definitely make this again.

Excellent! Made it for a family party, and it was gone in minutes, and I had quite a few people asking for the recipe. I took the advice of wrapping in tinfoil, and think that really helps!

I made this for a dinner party and it the bread bowl was scraped clean. I had one guest who tried to leave with the empty bowl! It is so wonderful. I wrapped my bread in tinfoil as per the suggestions and it came out lovely.

WOW! I made this for a Thanksgiving appetizer and everyone raved about it. Does not disappoint! I might try adding some cream cheese in next time to give it a different texture just to see. Delicious!

I have made this twice now. It is SO GOOD! Not your typical cheddar and bacon dip. The cheeses give it a more Italian flavor. Its a big hit!

This chutney provides a healthy burn and a little goes far. It is recommended as an accompaniment to Mediterranean Merguez Flatbread, which is also posted here in my recipe box or under Quick Breads.

Finger Licking Fiery Agave Glazed Chicken Wings

by Rashmi Primlani and filed in Appetizers

To be honest I am not an advocate of greasy, fried food, not to mention the mess frying creates in the kitchen. These baked chicken wings get an extra boost of flavor from marinating the meat over night and with the fiery heat scale, you won’t even notice that these are not fried. To achieve the balance of savory and sweet, I am serving these wings with an Indian spiced Pineapple Chutney for when you felt the need to cool dow
