    Recommended Products

    Instant Pot Directions:

    1. You will need a 6 x 3-inch round ovenproof bowl or baking souffle dish (Pyrex or ceramic) that fits in the inner pot of the Instant Pot.
    2. Add 1 cup water to the inner pot of the Instant Pot.
    3. To the ovenproof dish add all the ingredients and cover the top of the dish with a sheet of tin foil to keep the water out of the dip.
    4. Place the covered dish on top of the steamer rack. Grasping the rack handles, lower the rack with the bowl into the Instant Pot.
    5. Close and lock the lid and turn the pressure release handle to Sealing. Select Pressure Cook (Manual) on High Pressure and set the timer for 19 minutes by pressing the + or - buttons.
    6. Once cooking time is complete, carefully use the Quick Release method to release all the pressure.
    7. Once pressure is released,  carefully grasp rack handles with oven mitts and lift to remove the baking dish from the pot. Remove the aluminum foil and immediately whisk the dip thoroughly until smooth.
    8. Serve immediately while warm with mini grilled chicken kabobs (chopped grilled chicken breast tenders on toothpicks),  celery sticks, mini bell pepper sticks, baked until crisp pepperoni slices, salami, low carb chips or low carb crackers for dipping.

    Slow Cooker Directions:

    1. Add all the ingredients to a slow cooker and mix together.
    2. Cover and cook on low for 2 ½ to 3 hours. Uncover and whisk until smooth (can also use an immersion stick blender to get this extra smooth).
    3. Turn slow cooker to warm setting to keep dip warm.
    4. Serve with mini grilled chicken kabobs (chopped grilled chicken breast tenders on toothpicks),  celery sticks, mini bell pepper sticks,  baked until crisp pepperoni slices, salami, low carb chips or low carb crackers for dipping.

      I'm wondering if this would be better made with white American cheese – hand shredded. You can buy it at any deli and ask them to cut you a chunk, so it will be easy to shred. A lot of Mexican restaurants use white American cheese because it melts perfectly. Pre-shredded cheese has extra wax and additives in it that tend to not work as well for dips or sauces.
      I can't wait to make this!

      It’s so good!! Do you think I could use the microwave to heat everything together instead? I’m just impatient and don’t want to break out my instant pot... but if I have to, it’s worth it lol 😆

        I have not tried the microwave, but I'm sure it can be done as long as you use the melt cycle or use short times then stir and heat again for short bursts.

      I make something similar, but has about 4ounces (125g) cream cheese in it. I use my non-genuine thermometer knock off, and it is ready in 15 minutes.

      Ooooh, this looks delicious! I definitely think it'll taste much better with salami or pepperoni chips than with crackers. I'm also a little obsessed with sweet peppers, so this recipe is a must try with those for the next party. Thanks for providing so many options to go with the dip!
