I've tried several appetizers before, but this one is a surefire people-pleaser. The thick dip has lots of bacon flavor and keeps my guests happily munching before dinner. I serve it with tortilla chips or sliced French bread. -Suzanne Whitaker Knoxville, Tennessee

Very good! Loved watching the faces of people expecting a cheese dip and then getting the bacon flavor. Everyone wanted the recipe.

it didnt fit in the 11/2 crockpot, it was maybe just a tad too cheesy...but good!

Made this last night and everyone liked it. Several asked for the recipe. Easy and delicious. Will make again.

Very good only problem is that a 1 1/2 qt slow cooker is not big enough for amount of ingredients.

All I had on hand was some flour tortillas so I quartered and baked them and served with the dip and it was a big hit.

The dip was great but we tend to like spicier foods. I added a small can of diced green chili's and 2 diced jalapeno's.
