Anytime I make this Ultimate BLT Dip I have fond memories of my Mom. This was one of her favorite recipes to break out for summer holidays. It's always a huge hit when I bring it to a summer pool day or beach picnic.

The Ultimate BLT Dip

I found this recipe in one of my mom's boxes of recipes, andI was anxious to try it again. I couldn't believe how long this recipe has been floating around in my family. It was comforting knowing that my mother also loved this recipe.

Thinking back, I believe the holiday celebration was the fourth of July, and by the time the fireworks started, the bowl was empty. The dip was such a huge hit.

Is this dip Keto-friendly?

Yes, if you use celery! It will still satisfy you and has plenty of fat to keep you in ketosis. However, if you aren't, you will want to watch your portions.

Alternatives to Sour Cream?

You could also use greek yogurt or mayonnaise. Instead of using cream cheese and sour cream, you could mash up a few avocados, which would allow you to make this Dairy-Free.

Is it that easy to make?

This recipe is easy to whip up in less than 10 minutes!

How long will BLT stay fresh?

In the fridge, it will stay fresh for 3 to 5 days. However, I wouldn't recommend saving the dip after being sat out for over 2 hours. Dairy products, such as cream cheeses, sour cream, milk, and more, can begin to grow bacteria after being left out for over two hours. If the dip gets to a temperature above 40 degrees Fahrenheit for more than two hours, it is recommended to throw away per FoodSafety.gov.
