- Garnish options: Add a sprinkle of chopped green onions, extra shredded cheddar cheese, or crumbled bacon on top for a beautiful and flavorful finish.
Storage Tips
- Refrigerate leftovers: Store any leftover dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. This dip actually tastes even better after sitting overnight!
- Freezing not recommended: Due to its creamy texture and ingredients like sour cream and shredded cheese, this dip is not ideal for freezing. It’s best enjoyed fresh or within a few days of making it.
