Creamy Chicken Caesar Dip
Of course, we love Caesar salad—all that cool, crisp romaine feels like home. But sometimes we wish those crunchy, garlicy croutons were even bigger. Well, if wishes were salad dishes…apparently here at Taylor Farms, they ARE. We’ve made a Caesar salad dip, featuring finely chopped romaine from our Caesar Chopped Kit drenched in a creamy, yogurt-based Caesar dressing sauce jazzed up with Dijon mustard and fresh chives. Then mix in bite-sized tender chicken, grab your toasted baguette slices, spoon on the Caesar goodness, and enjoy your salad-turned-appetizer.

Ingredients
- 1 Taylor Farms Caesar Chopped Kit
- 1 cup cooked chicken breast or thighs
- ½ cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 ½ tablespoons fresh chives, finely chopped (plus more for garnish)
- 1 ½ teaspoons Worcestershire sauce

Directions
- On a large cutting board, spread out the ingredients from the Caesar Chopped Kit (omit the dressing and croutons) along with the cooked chicken. Chop everything together into small, dip-friendly pieces.
- In a bowl, whisk together the Caesar dressing (from the kit), Greek yogurt, water, chives, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and a little black pepper.

- Crush the reserved croutons and sprinkle over the top. Garnish with extra chives.
- Serve with toasted baguette slices for dipping.
Get Your (Dip) Game On
It’s Football Season, which means it’s Dip Season. Nothing says Game Time like an inviting spread of your favorite chips or pretzels — and cut-up vegetables, of course — all ready to plunge into cheesy, garlicky, creamy, ranch-y delicious dips.
While traditional dips like queso or garlic ranch are all lip-smacking favorites, they can be a little heavy on calories. This season, instead of smothering veggies in something less healthy, we thought we’d make vegetables a part of a dip. This Chicken Caesar Dip recipe is a great alternative to dipping something straight into Caesar dressing: made with lettuce and Greek yogurt, it keeps it all a little lighter. (Not to mention a little more haute cuisine, thanks to the baguettes in place of chips.)
Taylor Farms makes prepping a Game Day veggie-and-dip spread super easy with our fresh bags and trays of pre-cut, washed vegetables. Grab some broccoli & cauliflower florets, and some celery bites, pour some ranch dressing or hummus in a bowl, and sit back and enjoy the game.
Having company? Spend less time chopping, more time cheering. Our Veggie Trays feature a variety of pre-cut veggies and ranch dressing. And when it’s a watch party for one, you can have your own mini veggie dip indulgence just as easily. Simply grab a couple of our snack packs, like the Carrot Chips & Dip Snack Pack or the Celery Bites & Dip Snack Pack. Whatever veggie you choose, it’s all a score.
