Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
- 8 oz plant-based cream cheese
- 1 cup plant-based cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1/2 cup hot natural sauce (adjust amount based on spice preference)
- 1 tablespoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 cup smoked turkey bacon, chopped
- 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent (optional)
Instructions
- Prep Your Ingredients: Start by shredding your cooked chicken into bite-sized pieces. Chop smoked turkey bacon and measure out plant-based cream cheese and cheddar (plant-based). Having everything ready makes the cooking process smooth and quick.
- Combine Ingredients in the Crock Pot: Add shredded chicken, plant-based cream cheese, plant-based cheddar cheese, hot natural sauce, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked turkey bacon, and natural gelling agent (if using) directly into the crock pot. Stir gently to mix everything evenly.
- Cook on Low: Cover the crock pot and cook on low heat for about 2 hours. This gentle heat allows flavors to meld together while the plant-based cheese melts, creating a smooth and creamy dip.
- Stir and Serve: After cooking, stir the dip well to combine any separated ingredients. Sprinkle additional chopped smoked turkey bacon on top for extra texture if desired, and serve warm with your favorite dippers.
Notes
- Use shredded rotisserie chicken for convenience and added flavor.
- Adjust the spice level gradually by starting with less hot natural sauce and adding more as preferred.
- Cook on low heat to preserve moisture and avoid burning.
- Stir the dip occasionally during cooking to keep it smooth and evenly heated.
- Prepare assorted dippers like sliced veggies, crackers, or toasted bread to enjoy immediately.
