This Cheesy Chicken Alfredo Dip is perfect for game day, movie night, an appetizer or a casual dinner! It’s creamy, cheesy, and made from scratch! Perfect with crusty bread or vegetables.
I first shared this recipe on The Recipe Critic.
So, I know that you know this already, but I’m a little bit picky.
I like the things I like and I’m not always super adventurous when it comes to the food I eat. But comfort food? You could say it’s my forte.
As far as dips go, I’m usually not a fan. I don’t like dressings, or sour cream, or mayo, or any of the things that dips are generally made from. But this one I think I could eat just with a spoon!
It’s made with a homemade Alfredo sauce (which is super easy and totally worth the extra 10 minutes!), cream cheese, extra cheese, and chicken. If you serve it up with crusty bread and some veggies, you can easily make it a complete meal!
One of the things I love about baked dips like this for a game day or entertaining is that they can be made completely ahead of time and just baked when you need them. They store so well in the refrigerator and really take a lot of the stress out of cooking for a whole bunch of people!
