And we all know, the better your snacks, the better your team’s chance of winning, right? My family is all about dippable foods and when I had the idea of a cheesy potato dip for potato chips? I was all over that. It should come as no surprise that my family absolutely loved this recipe and it’s become a much-loved favorite in our house.
Baked Potato Dip
To make this baked potato dip recipe, first, bake the potatoes. Then slice them in half, hollow out the centers and combine that fluffy baked potato with sour cream, butter, and cheese. The filling is my favorite part of classic twice-baked potatoes and that was the inspiration for this Twice Baked Potato Dip. Served with sturdy potato chips or eaten with a spoon, this is the mashed potato dish of my dreams.
Loaded Potato Dip
Potatoes + Potatoes + all the delicious dairy + bacon?! What’s not to love about this combination? Perfect for game day or pretty much any other occasion, this loaded potato dip is going to be the big favorite for your next event. Judging by how quickly this disappears when I make it, I can pretty much guarantee it. Even if your team misses the Hail Mary pass, these potatoes will ensure your party is a winner.
