With all the flavors of a B.L.T. sandwich, this easy is so delicious served with toasted baguette slices or your favorite taco chips. It’s always a hit at every party!
I love a dip that tastes like my favorite sandwich! A B.L.T is my all-time favorite combination for a sandwich, especially in the summer months with fresh tomatoes. This dip has a “zip” to it, with the chipotle and lime, and and is delicious with chunks of fresh corn off the cob!
Chipotle BLT Dip
Here’s a quick tip if you don’t have a jalepeno in the fridge–just reach for Chipotle Chili Pepper and it adds just the right amount of spice. It’s a great way to bring this recipe up a notch!
Why I love this recipe
- It’s a great snack for a summer pool party or a game day snack.
- Delish served in a wrap with turkey!
- Fresh and tasty for Taco Tuesday, with chips or even on tacos!
We love this dip, especially in the summertime, because it’s a great party appetizer. And most of us will have the ingredients on hand. It’s also so easy to make, and you can make it ahead and keep in the fridge until ready to serve.
Gather these ingredients
- Avocados: fresh, soft and rip avocados
- White or red onion
- Bacon: cooked
- Mayonnaise: regular is the best, avocaodo mayo gives a slight tangy flavor
- Tomatoes: fresh
- Fresh corn: fresh off the cob is best, but you can used canned corn (drained)
- Cilantro
- Chipotle Chili Pepper
- Lime
- Salt: we use Sea Salt
Love a bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich? Yep so do I. And this dip has definitely got the flavor!
How do you make Chipotle BLT Dip
- Start with mashed avocados.
- In a large bowl mix together all the ingredients.
- Salt to taste!
- Place in a small serving bowl and garnish with cilantro and serve with your favorite chips, crackers, bread, or crudite.
How do you serve BLT Dip?
- The obvious way to serve this dip is as a dip with dippers (sturdy chips, crackers, pita chips, pretzels, and even crudite).
- Scoop it into a hot baked potato (yum)!
- Spread it on your favorite sandwich (turkey and provolone? yes, please!)
- Add it to a wrap or even a BLT sandwich.
- Here’s also something I bet you’ve never tried: Tri Tip Crostini. We have leftover trip tip from dinner last night, and this is a classic summer bite in our kitchen (for appetizer or a light summer dinner). Serve this dip on a crostini!
Tips and substitutions:
- A big plus is that it is quick and easy, you can make it a day ahead of time.
- You can leave out the chipotle and replace with a chopped jalapeno.
- If you don’t have lime, you can use a fresh lemon.
- Serve it with Mexican food – big party hit!
- Serve with sliced baguettes, brushed with butter and toasted.
- Add to lettuce wraps.
- Make a chopped salad and add a spoonful of this dip to the side.
- Keep the dip refrigerated until you are setting food out for the party. Make sure and stir it before serving (avocados can get a little brown).
- If it’s warm at your party, you may want to set the bowl in a bowl of ice to keep the dip cold since there is mayo in the recipe.
There are hot bacon dips and then cold BLT bacon dips! This one screams summer, made with fresh corn. So good! You may also want to try my Easy Corn Pico de Gallo Salad or Corn and Mango Dip.
We loved the chipotle flavor so much, and then add in the fresh corn off the cob – crunchy and so much fresh flavor going on! Optional to leave the corn in a more chunky style (cut off the cob).
Enjoy!

Someone brought this while we were camping over Memorial Day weekend and I forgot to get the recipe and the name of it. Needless to say, after about an hour of searching, I FINALLY found it! It was unbelievable and a must-try recipe! Thank you for sharing.
I have the confidence, but its feeling okay about the ‘messy’ part. I often am really tired by the time my guests get there or I choose not to have people over. So that is a very straight forward tip. What’s weird messy is quite fine at other people’s houses. I don’t even notice it or if I do , it doesn’t make me have any less fun or think less of them. I am just glad to be there. The dip is great by the way!
This is a must for the holiday barbecues!
I am totally making this over the weekend… It’s perfection in a bowl!
Love the vibrant color, texture and the flavors of the dip. Fabulous!
Oh my goodness!! This looks incredible, I love all the spice going on. Perfect for Memorial Day weekend!
love this BLT dip!!! as soon as I saw that Chipotle Chili Pepper I knew where it was from! :) looks so delicious and now I want to curl up with a huge bowl of this with chips! yummm!
I LOVE your “i like it” tips! I always get way too stressed when we have people over and it ruins the night!
And this dip? YUM! Love me a good BLT, so this dip twist is perfect.
Pinned! Happy weekend pretty lady :)
