While I am not particularly interested if the Steelers beat the Packers, there is something that I am interested in on Superbowl Sunday. The food. I love Superbowl food. Dips, appetizers, finger foods, cheese, chili, and icy cold beers. It is the one day of the year when you are supposed to eat garbage and it is perfectly acceptable, if not encouraged. It is the one time of the year that I do not even bother to put together a well-rounded meal that includes all the food groups and various colors.
This Loaded Baked Potato Dip is perfect for a Superbowl Party. Loaded Baked Potato Dip takes mere minutes to make, and can be made a day ahead of time. It includes the Superbowl party food groups: cheese, bacon, sour cream, and potato chips. I served mine with chips, but next time, I would use Alexia’s Waffle Fries. I think that you need something a little more substantial to use for a dip delivery system. The chips broke in the dip. No one likes to fish the other half of their chip out of the dip bowl. It would also be divine served inside a baked potato, hence the name.
I got this recipe from the January 2011 Southern Living Magazine.
1/4 pound thick cut bacon (I used pepper bacon)
1 (16-ounce) container sour cream
2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese (I used a cheese blend and it was still cheesy and delish)
1/3 cup chopped fresh chives
2 teaspoons hot sauce
waffle fries or potato chips
Put everything in the bowl. (I save a little bacon and chives to garnish with.)
Mix. We are really cooking now. Pour it into your container and let chill for at least 1 hour and up to 24 hours.
Garnish with the reserved bacon and chives. Serve with some chips or waffle fries.
Grab an icy cold beverage and dip away. Who are we rooting for? The Steelers or the Packers?

I WANT this RIGHT now!! Only 14 weeks pregnant and this little one is calling the shots! Gotta have salty!! Chips sound great to me, too bad the broke in the dip. I may just double stack the chips and try my luck!
Congrats on the new babe!
GO PACK GO
Dip looks yummy!
It is!
oooh man. This looks tasty, thanks for sharing!!!
no problem Pam!
Bree, this dip sounds super yum and I love how easy it is. I’m going to try this over the weekend!
great Trisha!
Who cares about football? I just enjoy the naughty culinary buffets! This dip sounds ahhh-mazing!!
Me too, Becks, me too. Could care less. But I love an excuse to eat copious amounts of junk food.
O.M.G! I am drooling. This dip would most definitely be the hit of any superbowl party. I am soooo bookmarking it. YUM YUM YUM!
you will be happy that you did.
This looks so yummy! Definately a candidate for super bowl! You are so lucky to have such wonderful natural light! My kitchen is a cave, and by the time I get home in the evening to start cooking it’s really dark! Makes such a difference in the pictures. Beautiful as always.
I bought this house because the light was so beautiful. I am very lucky.
this would have been PERFECT for my get together last Saturday…will remember it next time! Love your blog!
It will be perfect for just about any occasion. Thank you Melissa!
I will be watching the Steeler’s 7th super bowl victory in a down town Pittsburgh bar and not cooking at home, however I am going to keep this recipe in mind because Stanley Cup season isn’t too far off and who doesn’t love an excuse to eat fattening on a regular ol’ Sunday anyway??
Sounds like a good game plan.
I have a very similar dip recipe that includes one packet of the Hidden Valley Ranch Dip mix….it is oh so yummy with chips, pita chips, or mixed in mashed potatoes. When I make it for a party there is never any left.
the ranch sounds like a delicious addition.
I’m making this for super bowl- thanks!!
You are welcome! Have fun.
“Dip delivery system”–LOVE it! This is on my to do list!
thanks Poet.
This dip will go great with the amazing deal I scored on chips. Go Packers!!!
Yeah!
AH! I can’t make this sunday! I already told my friend about it ! yummmm!!!
hope that you like it.
oops I meant I can’t WAIT to make this sunday hahaha!
we bought the ruffle hot wings chips and regular ruffles for the dip …. i think the hot wing chips would be amazing in this dip!! just another idea!
yum. that sounds good.
Where’s the baked potato – how many – smashed, chunked. Help!!!
The chips are the potato. It is a play on a loaded potato.
Made this today & it was sooo good, two thumbs up for sure. I didn’t have the chives but it was just fine. Thanks for sharing!
I am so glad Ashleigh!
sounds very similar to a BLT dip I served summer of 2010 and 2011 and the plate was CLEANED up! This will get tried on Super Bowl Sunday. The only time we MAKE time to watch football. Being in Cleveland, we only get excited about football in September, then it’s all downhill from there, sadly.
You had a good run this year. I love Cleveland, my best friend lives there, and I have visited a few times. Such a nice place.
I’m making this for my daughters birthday tomorrow. I’m serving it warm and keeping it on low in the crockpot. 🙂 I’ve done a similar loaded baked potato dip before and I’m eager to try this version. Thank you!
Sounds good!
