Blue Cheese, Bacon, & Onion Spread Recipe, easy appetizer with blue cheese, bacon, onion, and garlic. Quick spread or dip for crackers, veggies, etc.

Blue Cheese, Bacon, & Onion Spread, an easy spread and dip recipe. Ready for the Super Bowl?  It’s all about the FOOD isn’t it??  :)  Lots of great recipes all over the internet for fun food for the big day.  If you need a few ideas, I have an appetizer/snack board on Pinterest with lots of great ideas for you.  I also put pictures of all my recipes on Pinterest so you can easily see all my recipes for quick reference and pinning!

This week I have 4 simple appetizer spread recipes.  They all have 5 ingredients (plus salt/pepper to taste) and are very easy to make, go great together, and perfect for any party!

Here are a more suggestions from my Recipe Index that you may enjoy for your Super Bowl Menu…

• Buffalo Chicken Pasta Salad
• Buffalo Shrimp Bread Bowl Dip
• Caribbean Shrimp Sliders with Mango Slaw
• Creamy Chipotle Shrimp Crostini
• Crunchy Chicken Stuffed Waffle Pops & Maple Dijon Dip
• Mini Pretzel Rolls with Bacon Cheddar Butter Spread
• Mini Tarragon Lemon Shrimp Paninis
• Ranch Chicken Club Salad Sliders
• Spicy Sausage & Beer Cheese Dip (Slow Cooker)
• Sweet Heat Mango Chicken Sliders
• Sweet & Spicy Root Beer BBQ Pork

Today’s spread has cream cheese, bacon, onion, blue cheese, garlic, and salt/pepper to taste.  I cooked the garlic, onion, and bacon all in the same pan, then let it cool.  I put everything in a food processor and processed until just combined, but you can mix by hand.  Super easy!!  Serve with crackers, vegetables, baguette slices, etc.  Since I was making 4 spreads at the same time, I garnished the top so I could easily tell which spread was which!!  Enjoy!

Hope you enjoy!
