Keto Cheese and Pancetta Dip
This easy Keto dip is simple to prepare and perfect for sharing. Our rich and cheesy low carb dip is made with sour cream, mayonnaise, cream cheese, aromatic garlic, a hint of zesty lemon, tangy grated parmesan, and grated cheddar. The cheesy dip is then mixed with cooked diced pancetta and oven-baked until bubbling and golden. Perfect served as a snack or appetizer - ideal for the holidays.
Can I Use a Different Cheese?
We have used grated cheddar cheese and parmesan for our creamy Keto dip. If you would like to use an alternative cheese, you can swap the grated cheddar for Monterey Jack. You can also swap the parmesan for an alternative grated Italian hard cheese if desired. Simply swap the quantities like for like and use as directed.
Can I Make This Vegetarian?
We have added crispy diced pancetta to our low carb cheese dip. If you would like to make this recipe vegetarian, you can simply omit the pancetta. You can also swap the parmesan for an alternative Italian hard cheese that is free from rennet. For added texture, you can garnish the dip with some toasted nuts if desired. Please be sure to adjust your macros to account for any changes made to the recipe.
