    This is one of my favorite easy meals. The main part of it, the bacon wrapped chicken tenders, have just two ingredients. They take less than 5 minutes to prep and making the dip also takes less than 5 minutes.

    Free Guide! Feed a Family on a Low Carb Diet

    In this free 5-day email series learn all my tips for incorporating a low-carb lifestyle into the life of your family.

    These are great for parties because you can just eat them with your fingers. I guarantee they will be gobbled up in no time. I love serving hot appetizers for get-togethers but they have to be easy. I don't want to be stuck in the kitchen instead of visiting with my friends and family. I love appetizers that can be made a couple of days ahead and just reheated or ones with very little prep on the day of the event.

    For a dairy-free and paleo option just sub your favorite dairy-free dip in place of my ranch dip.

      The whole dip would be 4.5 carbs which isn't much, but I just wanted to let you know if someone is being very strict with their carbs. Thank you for the recipe, it's delicious. If there is a carb free sour cream, please let me know so I can run and get that brand. Lol5 stars

      Could you freeze these as a make ahead meal too? I can’t wait to make them!

        No, sorry. I don't think these would freeze well.

      Where is the Carb count?

        These have 0 carbs. That's why you don't see a carb number. I changed it to 0.1 so it shows up to avoid confusion.

        Tried the dip right after whipping it up and this will now be our go to dip for everything. Tasted just like name brand chip dip to us. Before starting keto chips and dip were a huge thing. Now we can have zucchini chips and this homemade dip guilt free. Amazing recipe!5 stars

        It says it near the top of the recipe card, there are 12 servings. Each serving is calculated for 1 chicken tender with about 1 tbsp of dip.

      I'm assuming that the instructions "Place on a baking sheet; bake for 35-45 minutes" showing up twice was an "oops" and that it actually should not be baked a total of 70-90 minutes, correct?

        Correct! I'll edit that. Thank you.

      This looks wonderful. I don't see a THM rating on this recipe as I do on many of your others. Was this an oversight? Thanks

        It's an S because of the bacon 🙂
