Notes

Common Questions- 

Can I make this chicken salad dip hot?

I haven’t actually tried this warmed up but I’m sure it would work fine heated in the oven or microwave.

What can I use instead of mayo?

You can certainly swap out the mayo for full-fat Greek yogurt. Just know the flavor will be a bit tangier.

Can I make this dip ahead of time?

Absolutely! Make dip up to 24-hours ahead of time. I would reserve the bacon and stir in right before serving.

How long does chicken salad dip last?

This dip will stay fresh for 3-4 days in the refrigerator in an airtight container.

What if my dip is too thick?

If the mixture is too thick, you can add more mayo, sour cream, or pepperoncini or jalapeno juice from a jar to thin it out.

Tip:

Use a store-bought rotisserie chicken to make this super fast.
