Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 425. Boil broccoli until just tender, then chop into small pieces, place in a large bowl. Add diced onion, bacon bits and garlic. Mix ingredients together thoroughly.
- 2. Add Mayo, sour cream, 1 cup of cheddar and 1 cup of the mozzarella (save the 1/2 cup mozzarella for topping) until everything is binded together. Place mixture in a baking dish.
- 3. Sprinkle the last 1/2 cup of mozzarella over the top of the mixture and place in the oven for approx. 10-15 minutes until cheese is fully melted...(or until you see a slight golden color to the top).
- 4. Remove dip from oven and serve hot with bagel crisps, crackers, veggies, chips or whatever you'd like! (This dip is also great as a sauce over baked boneless skinless chicken breast!)
Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your dip.
- Don't overcook the broccoli. It should be tender but still have a little bit of crunch.
- Use a good quality cheese. A sharp cheddar or Gruyère will give your dip a rich, cheesy flavor.
- Season your dip to taste. Add salt, pepper, and garlic powder or other seasonings to taste.
- Serve your dip warm with your favorite dippers. Tortilla chips, crackers, and vegetables are all great options.
