Carnivore Easy Cheese Dip Recipe
Ingredients:
-
8 oz cream cheese (softened)
-
1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a blend of your favorite cheeses)
-
3 tbsp unsalted butter
-
2 tbsp heavy cream (for creaminess)
-
Salt, to taste
-
Pepper (optional, for added flavor)
-
Optional: 1-2 tsp of garlic powder or onion powder (if you’re not strictly carnivore but want a bit more flavor)
Instructions:
-
Melt the Butter:
-
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
-
-
Add the Cream Cheese:
-
Add the softened cream cheese to the pan and stir until it’s fully melted and combined with the butter.
-
-
Add the Shredded Cheese:
-
Gradually add the shredded cheese to the pan, stirring constantly to prevent it from clumping. Keep stirring until the cheese is fully melted and smooth.
-
-
Add Heavy Cream:
-
Pour in the heavy cream to reach your desired dip consistency. If you like it thicker, use less cream; for a more liquid dip, add a little more cream. Stir to combine.
-
-
Season the Dip:
-
Taste the dip and add salt to your liking. If you’re using pepper or optional seasonings like garlic or onion powder, add those as well.
-
-
Serve:
-
Once the dip is smooth, hot, and creamy, serve it immediately. You can use it as a dip for carnivore-friendly snacks like crispy bacon, cooked sausage, or even as a topping for meats.
-
Tips:
-
If you want a bit more depth of flavor, you can experiment with different types of cheeses, such as a sharp cheddar or Parmesan for extra richness.
-
If you prefer a spicier dip, you can add a pinch of cayenne pepper or paprika.
-
For a thicker dip, you can reduce the amount of heavy cream or let it cook down longer until it reaches the desired consistency.
