BACON CHEESEBURGER CROCK POT DIP

Game Day is just about here, I found this recipe that would be just perfect for your next game day get together. I enjoy making food for parties and I have had this one before and served with tortilla chips it’s a perfect pair. Let's be honest adding bacon to anything is a win. Have it along with an ice cold beer while watching football.

My family looks forward to all the yummy appetizers and finger foods that end up on our kitchen island on the weekend. This Crockpot Bacon Cheeseburger Dip is one of my houses’ favorite. Keep it on warm in the crockpot so it stays nice and gooey. This dip can be made in a 2-4 qt crockpot.
