Recipe Notes
2 tablespoons sour cream
1 cup keto cranberry sauce
½ jalapeno, de-seeded and chopped
A dash of salt
4 tablespoons erythritol (or more if desired) – Use any sugar substitute of your choice!
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice (or lime juice)
2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, chopped (or green onion) Instructions:
- For making a low-carb/sugar-free cranberry jalapeno cream cheese dip, combine all the ingredients in a food process, blending until obtaining a mostly smooth and creamy dip.
- Taste and add extra salt, sweetener, or lemon juice to the dip mixture. Blend again and transfer the mixture to a serving bowl. Garnish with chopped fresh herbs and enjoy!
