This chunky little dip packs a lot of flavor
for having so few ingredients.
We're not sure why it is called Neiman Marcus Dip.
Maybe because it taste so "rich"...
Like a million bucks.
Whatever the reason...it is good!
It just takes 5 ingredients.
Fresh green onions straight from the garden.
Thanks Jeanne!
Shredded cheddar cheese.
We love the little hand held grater from IKEA.
It holds all of the cheese inside,
then you can put it anywhere
you want it...on the chopping board,
straight in a casserole, or right in a bowl.
Easy as can be.
Chop the onions.
Grate the cheese.
Then dump in the bacon bits,
almonds, and mayonnaise.
Stir and refrigerate for a few hours
so all of the flavors blend together.
Now
if you have picky onion haters in your family
like we do in ours...
(You know who you are Amber & Cory)
then just leave out the onions.
Usually when we make it we stir everything together
but the onions, set
aside some for the haters,
then throw the onions in and mix.
Neiman Marcus Dip
5 - 6 green onions
8 oz. cheddar cheese, shredded
1 1/2 cups mayonnaise
1 jar Hormel Real Bacon Bits
1 pkg. slivered almonds
Chop the green onions.
Shred the cheddar cheese.
Mix the onions, cheese, mayo, bacon bits,
and slivered almonds together.
Chill for a couple hours.
Serve with Ritz crackers or corn chips.
Enjoy!








I love this dip. I am proud to be an onion hater.
ReplyDeleteIt could be called that because it was probably first served in the Neiman Marcus Restaurant.
ReplyDeleteGoing to try it today!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to try this, but as I'm outside the US I don't know how much bacon bits or almonds there are in the packages you recommend. Could you provide cup or weight measurements please?
ReplyDeleteThe picture shows a 3 ounce jar of bacon bits and a package with 1/2 cup slivered almonds.
DeleteI am going to make this..and you can improvise.. with the amounts . Thanks for the idea!

ReplyDeleteI love the irony of making your "Neiman Marcus" dip with a cheese grater from IKEA! LOL!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to try this and I need that cheese grater for myself!
We love the cheese grater from IKEA.
Deletecan you use something instead of the mayo?
ReplyDeleteNo! you will shurely die if you use anything other than mayo!
DeleteIm thinking maybe with sour cream would be good!
DeleteWhy not Greek Yogurt? (Oikos Plain - nice and thick)
DeleteWe have tried it with Miracle Whip but it didn't taste as good...too sweet. BUT the good thing is that you can experiment and try whatever you like...you might come up with something even more delicious.
Deletetry vegenaise...great!
DeleteIf a recipe calls for real mayo, use Duke's if you can find it...so much better than Hellman's or any other!
Deletehahaha lol surely you will die
DeleteDuke's kicks Hellman's Hiney!
I would definitely use Sour Cream in place of the mayo! Try it if you aren't a mayo lover and you will see its just as good if not better!
DeleteIf you let the dip sit too long, the bacon bit will rehydrate and look like little bits of ham. Doesn't affect the taste, but just so you know.
ReplyDeleteThis dip is also GREAT with Pepper Jelly on top of it !!! Yumm,,,
ReplyDeleteI've seen this same receipt, but with raw broccoli in it.
ReplyDeleteI make mine with three different cheeses and cut up a few tomatoes and a bell pepper makes it more colorful. But the big difference is I mix it all up with Green Goddess dressing, it is wonderful. I am going to try yours sounds delicious. Thank you!!!
ReplyDeleteI love this dip with Kame rice crackers. I could eat the whole thing!
ReplyDeleteMade it last night, what a hit!! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to try this! Looks really good :)
ReplyDeleteLooks delish! I'm gonna make this...but I think I'll toast the almonds a bit...use half sour cream half mayo...and maybe add in a clove of garlic!
ReplyDeleteAdd 2tsp of Dry Ranch Dressing and Craisins to taste... Amazing
ReplyDeleteoooh reading this just in time for Christmas company, sounds delicious..cant wait to try! Thankyou!
ReplyDeleteOMG! This sounds Sooo Yummy I'm going to make it Soon!
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking of trying it and substituting sunflower kernels for the almonds since nuts give me migraines
ReplyDeleteHow may clories is in that ?
ReplyDeleteYum.....You could also add chicken and celery to make a different kind of chicken salad.
ReplyDeleteOHHH this looks so great:-) Great recipes, great pictures:-)
ReplyDeleteWith nut allergies do you have a suggestion for something besides almonds?
ReplyDeleteRoasted chick peas (you can google and find several different flavors)
Deleteor like another suggested sunflower seeds.
Just made this and replaced the Mayo with Non-fat Greek yogurt! Delicious!!
ReplyDeleteLooks delish! Gonna have to try this one for sure.... Thanks
ReplyDeleteUsed real bacon pieces (half the bag chopped fine), half low fat dukes, half Greek yogurt, and slivered water chestnuts (asian foods) instead of almonds
ReplyDeleteI made it with sour cream and it was a big hit! I think next time,I will fry the bacon and try that. Thanks for the recipe.
ReplyDeleteI use pecans and Oscar Meyer real bacon bits (they add real, smokey bacon taste) favorite southern dip. HUGE on flavor!
ReplyDeletemake your bacon fresh..takes it to a whole other level!
