Ingredients
Whipped cream cheese (8oz) at room temperature
Sour cream (4oz) (or substitute plain Greek yogurt)
Everything bagel seasoning (store-bought or *homemade)
Dried parsley
How to Make Everything Bagel Dip?
In a medium bowl, mix together the cream cheese, sour cream, bagel seasoning, and dried parsley. Make sure to mix until fully incorporated. You can use a hand mixer or standup mixer if that is easier than doing it by hand.
Scoop the mixture into a small bowl suitable for serving and place it in the center of your serving board.
Sprinkle a little bagel seasoning on top of your dip. You can sprinkle on a bit of the dried parsley, too, if you like.
Arrange celery sticks, baby carrots, mini bagels, and bagel chips around the dip bowl. Other choices are any other dippable veggies (think your average veggie tray and more), crackers, potato chips (ruffles are the best), pretzels rods or chips, tortilla chips, and more. Enjoy!
Recipe Pro Tips!
- The longer that the dip sits, the stronger the flavor becomes. Make sure to not put in more than 2 tbsp of the bagel seasoning unless you like a very strong flavor. It is easy for the flavor to become too strong if you put in a lot of seasoning.
- This dip can be refrigerated for 2 days in an airtight container or with cling wrap firmly wrapped around it.
- Make sure to use full-fat whipped cream cheese and sour cream. This makes the dip extra tasty!
- This recipe can easily be doubled if you are feeding more of a crowd!
