FAQs

Can I make this dip without a crockpot?

Yes, you can melt and combine all ingredients in a slow cooker insert on the stove over low heat, stirring frequently to prevent burning. Alternatively, use a microwave-safe dish and heat in short intervals, stirring until melted and smooth.

Is this dip gluten-free?

The dip itself is gluten-free if you use gluten-free condiments and pickles. Always check labels for hidden gluten, especially in processed ingredients like Velveeta or ketchup. Serve with gluten-free chips if needed.
