Why you’ll love this recipe

This dip can easily be made in a bread bowl or a baking dish. Some people will even serve this dip cold, but it’s a lot harder to dip into when it’s cold. It tastes great with bread cubes, Triscuits, or pretzels.

Ingredients

  • 8 oz Dried Beef finely chopped
  • 8 oz Sour Cream
  • 8 oz Cream Cheese at room temperature
  • 3 Tbsp Onion minced
  • 2 Tbsp Horseradish optional
  • Bread Bowl optional

Instructions

  • On low speed in a mixing bowl beat together sour cream and cream cheese.
  • Fold in Onion. Also, fold in Horseradish if desired.
  • Stir in dried beef.
  • If you are using a bread bowl hollow out the center and fill with prepared dip. Otherwise, bake in a small oven safe dish. (I'd use some kind of non-stick spray on the dish).
  • Bake at 325 degrees for 25 minutes. Serve hot with bread cubes, fresh veggies and crackers.

Notes

  • You can use a baking dish, but the bread bowl is the best way to enjoy a dried beef dip. Adding fresh horseradish gives it a nice zing, but you can easily omit it.
  • Sometimes finding the main ingredient, dried beef, for this recipe is tricky. I can normally go to any of our local butcher shops and buy it by the pound. My son has even made a dried venison roast that I have been able to use in my dip recipe.
