This Caesar Salad Dip is so refreshing with crispy romaine, crunchy croutons, shredded parm, and that bold Caesar flavor in every scoop. It’s crunchy, salty, and seriously addictive. 🤤

I saw a Caesar salad dip at Trader Joe’s and knew I had to recreate it from scratch 🙌❤️. This is perfect for summer snacking or your next pool day spread.

Ingredients

8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sour cream
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 tsp anchovy paste (optional, but traditional!)
Salt & black pepper, to taste
1/2 cup chopped romaine lettuce (for folding in or topping)
Crushed croutons & more parmesan for garnish

Directions

In a bowl, mix cream cheese, sour cream, and mayo until smooth.
Stir in parmesan, lemon juice, Worcestershire, mustard, garlic, and anchovy paste.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Fold in or top with chopped romaine.
Chill for at least 30 minutes.
Before serving, sprinkle with crushed croutons and extra parmesan. Serve with romaine leaves, pita chips, or toasted baguette slices!

Perfect Presentation Platters

We love layering a serving bowl over a wooden platter to surround with chips, crackers, baguettes, or any other dippers. Here are some of our favorites pieces:

Large Serving Bowls: For a wooden serving bowl, you could go with this beautiful option from Amazon or this Wooden Serving Bowl from JC Penney (that’s on sale!) or you may also love this beautiful stoneware bowl. For a higher-end choice, I love this white floral bowl by MacKenzie-Childs, as well this everyday bowl from her collection, which also comes in blue and now pink!

Wooden Serving Board: I used this large wooden platter from Target that is so cute, especially the handy double handles. If you’re looking to add to a collection, Antique Hardware has this set of 3 that I get so much use out of. I also use this rectangular tray all the time. (Both at a great price!)

Checkered Serving Boards: I used my Mackenzie-Childs check-chop board for both function and decor, which also comes in large. These are definitely investment pieces, but you can also check out a $30 version from Amazon or this version from Temu for under $25!

Kitchen Links: I get asked all the time about the products in the background of my kitchen. Much of it is from MacKenzie-Childs, which I have slowly grown a collection of over the years! My favorites are my black and white checkered teapot, and the gray and white checkered utensil holder. I also have this enamel canister that you can find in small, medium, or large.

Can I Prep this Caesar Salad Dip in Advance?

Yes! You can prep 2-3 hours before serving time and cover tightly with Saran Wrap before storing in the fridge.

Storing Leftovers

If you have any leftover Caesar Dip, store in Tupperware container and refrigerate, where it should stay fresh for several days. This is also great on wraps or sandwiches!
