Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Sauerkraut
- 1.5 cups Swiss cheese, shredded
- 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Caraway seeds (optional, for extra flavor)
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
- 1 assorted Crackers, bread, or vegetables for serving
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a small baking dish or pie pan lightly with cooking spray.
Drain the sauerkraut thoroughly, pressing out any excess liquid. Chop it finely if the strands are long.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and garlic powder. Stir until smooth and well-combined.
Fold in the shredded Swiss cheese, sauerkraut, and caraway seeds (if using). Mix until evenly distributed.
Spoon the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out into an even layer.
Bake the dip in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until it is bubbly and golden around the edges.
Remove from the oven and allow the dip to cool slightly for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired.
Serve warm with crackers, bread, or fresh vegetables for dipping. Enjoy!
