4th of July Appetizer Recipe: Chips & Cheese Dip!

Looking for the perfect 4th of July appetizer recipe? Look no further, this cheese and onion dip is it!
4th of July Appetizer: White Cheddar & Vidalia Onion Dip

4th of July Appetizer

How are you going to celebrate the 4th of July? I’m super excited to celebrate with good friends and delicious foods. Here is my new favorite cheese dip recipe that is perfect for Independence Day Entertaining! Make it ahead of time (I recommend a double batch – it’s popular!) and warm it up for the 4th.

As you might have seen, I’ve been working with Cracker Barrel Cheese so I used the Vermont White Cheddar in this dip recipe. It is fantastic! I love the sharp flavor and it pairs so well with sweet vidalia onions.

Vermont White Cheddar Cheese

I shredded the Vermont White Cheddar Cheese for the dip! You can easily tell it’s an award-winning cheese from its full flavor and cream texture. This dip is focused on the cheese so you really want to use a high quality cheese like Cracker Barrel. 

It’s perfect for melting in a dip. I also love it on grilled cheese or shredded over grilled veggies. We’ve been enjoying a lot of grilling this summer and this cheese finds its way into almost every meal. It’s a must try!

4th of July Appetizer: White Cheddar & Vidalia Onion DipTo keep things festive, I paired the dip with blue corn tortilla chips, red pepper strips, and cute star-shaped tortilla chips that I made myself. Simply take flour tortillas and a star cutter and go to town! Bake at 350 for a few minutes (not long, watch as they start to golden). Then remove and you’re ready!

I think this is a clever way to get in that “red,white, and blue” and they all pair perfectly with the white cheddar & vidalia onion dip! It makes the perfect 4th of July appetizer recipe!

4th of July Appetizer: White Cheddar & Vidalia Onion DipI’m warning you, you’ll want to double the batch because it’s addictive! It’s great for a big 4th of July party!

    We just made this for a World Cup watch party and it was deliciously insane! I didn’t have enough mayo so I used sour cream instead and it still turned out delish. We’ll be making this again over the weekend for 4th of July!!

    The star chips are adorable! Your recipe sounds delicious. I will substitute a different cheese, however. I refuse to buy any Cracker Barrel product after I read that their Sarasota store fired a Vietnam veteran. See article here: http://www.foxnews.com/us/2014/06/29/vietnam-veteran-73-loses-job-at-cracker-barrel-after-giving-muffin-to-needy-man/

      SV – You’re referring to the “Old Country Store”. This is a different company, it’s a cheese company that doesn’t have individual stores. It is sold in grocery stores.

    My husband loves this dip! I made it for the 10th time last night for company and I used herb and garlic cream cheese and omitted the herbs de provence. It was even better! Thanks so much!!!!

      Hi Katie! The only depends on the cheese used. But yes, some of that is normal with this type of cheese dip.

          I just made these for the first time. I melted some butter and added garlic powder to it. I brushed the tortillas then salted them before I baked them. They would be even better fried but I didn’t want to do that muck work????. Thanks for the idea.
