5 Million Dollar Dip is only 5 ingredients and they don’t call it million dollar dip for nothing! It is so deliciously addicting and will be the biggest hit wherever it goes!
Can I just say how much I love my readers and fans? I hope you know how much I appreciate all of your amazing comments and support in keeping this blog going. I especially love when readers send me messages and recipes that they want me to try. This recipe was sent to me from a reader telling me that I have to try it!
With it being only 5 ingredients and taking 5 minutes to make, I couldn’t wait to make it for our football party!
MY OTHER RECIPESThis dip has mayonnaise, green onions, cheddar cheese, and bacon bits. If you are looking to substitute the mayonnaise you can use greek yogurt, or even sour cream, but the mayonnaise is a key ingredient in bringing this dip all together. I loved all of the ingredients in this dip and the slivered almonds were my favorite part! They added the perfect crunch to this dip.
It is a MUST make dip for your next football party or gathering. Everyone won’t be able to get enough of it! You will quickly see why it is called a Million Dollar Dip!

Sure I’m gonna try one now! This ones easy to make and ingredients are accessible!
so how much does this dip create. I am going to our pastors small wedding reception at the church and am bringing a cheese ball with crackers might have to make this along with it as another dish. .
Judging from the amount of ingredients, I’d estimate this recipe makes about 2 cups of dip.
hey girl this looks so yummy! I love all kinds of dips!
This looks so delicious. Thanks for all the great recipes.
This looks delish! Can’t wait to try it! Was wondering if you used regular mayo or MW?
The recipe says “mayonnaise” not miracle whip. Those are two entirely different condiments.
This sounds amazing! Wonder what half mayo half sour cream would be like in it? Maybe some finely chopped jalapeño for a little kick? Am going to try this for sure.
When first made this tasted flat & salty! After chilling overnight, it was Delicious! Put it out for a ball game & it went FIRST & FAST! Will definitely be making it again!!
Could this be made with plain greek yogurt?
yes! I used plain greek yogurt, just a touch of mayo, and it was fab.
This called for way too much onion. It was overpowering.
I made this dip for my Women’s group. It was very old, however, the amount of onions was overpowering! I would definitely cut it down to two or three, five was way too much.
***** Correction******
The dip was very good.
We don’t eat bacon. Any substitute?
An imitation bacon usually prepared from smoked, chopped and reformed turkey and commonly marketed as a low-fat alternative to bacon. Turkey bacon can be used as a substitute for bacon too. Hope that helps!!
This dip looks yummy! I need to make it nut-free though, due to allergies. Do you have a suggestion of a substitute for the almonds or would you just omit them?
I would just omit them. 🙂
I have the same….allergy issues….I was thinking about using unsalted sunflower seeds….Just a thought I had
How about diced celery??
I used diced water chestnuts. It was really good.
I think some crunch is important in a dip. I would and will when i make it, substitute chopped water chestnuts fir the nuts 🙂
Try sunflower seeds
Can you have sunflower seeds? I would consider them if so…..
Sub with jicama,, water chestnuts or even bamboo shoots
I just made it so now I have to wait, lol. I am so looking forward to serving this while watching the game tomorrow. Thanks so much!
There’s no seasoning of any kind?
Looks really delicious!!! (just an fyi – it’s addictive, not addicting – addict is a noun rather than a verb.)
Actually, addict can be a verb and addicting can act as the participle adjective of the verb “to addict”, just as charming and insulting are the participle adjectives of the verbs to charm and to insult. I don’t think anyone would say that you can’t describe a person as charming or a statement as insulting, and similarly it is OK to describe a recipe as addicting.
I love this dip but feel like 5 green onions was too much. Next time using 2 or 3. I used leftover extra crispy bacon from breakfast which is always the way to go. Added a few dashes of Louisiana Hot Sauce. I think some diced jalapeños would be a great addition to this. Will make this again and again!
I subbed cream cheese for the mayo and it was really good.
Thanks for the great recipe! Looking forward to making it!
I make this all the time. I use fewer onions and I don’t use almonds. It’s so quick to put together and so yummy!!
I’m going to make this dip for an upcoming football game and I’m going t add some garlic salt and some jalepenos, for kick.
Garlic, yes. Salt, NO!!! This is already so salty!!
This looks delicious! Can’t wait to try it.
This is just how I roll but this is AMAZING as a spread on a hot grilled chicken sandwich or a burger……
Omg. Yessss!!!!!
Would this be a good dish to warm up or best served cold?
I like it served cold.
I’ve made this for years – I only use Hellman’s mayo and real crumbled bacon! It’s great as a cold dip but also makes the most AMAZING stuffed mushrooms! Has an entirely different taste warmed up. We also add it to scrambled eggs!! So good!!!!!
I made this for a party but added a few extra ingredients. Chopped Jalapeños, corn and diced water chestnuts. It went so fast!!!! Made it again as a filling for tea sandwiches (because it’s phenomenal on bread too😍) for a girls outing, it was the first thing to be completely consumed!!!!
Seems best when allowed to be refrigerated overnight.
The best!!!!
I made it last night, it was good but too salty. I think it was the mayo I used, it had 125mg of sodium in it. Can I fix this by adding some sour cream or cream cheese? Or should I toss it and start over?
This was ok, not great. I ended up adding a little salt and pepper and then some garlic powder. I think the mayo is the problem. I’ll probably use cream cheese if I try it again.
Could chopped pecans be used instead of slivered almonds?
I made this as a Christmas Eve appetizer and it was a huge hit. We had the leftovers on toast the next day and it was awesome that way too. I will definitely be making this again. Thanks for a great recipe.
Made this but omitted the almond slivers and green onions due to not having any. I also did not chill for 2 hours. Tried it 1st with sour cream using small amt of ingredients but it wasn’t good. Then tried it with the mayo, what a big difference, I doubled the recipe. It was a hit, had none left.
I liked it cold…but the next day I heated some up and thought it was more like a Two Million Dollar Dip!! To me, it tastes way better heated up!
I love cooking
This looks really good.
Would either Betty Crocker’s Bac-Os or Oscar Mayer’s turkey bacon be just as good in this good in this?
I made this for a football event…there was so much food there…but this was one that everyone commented on…they couldn’t figure out the crunch…I noticed on the video that sliced almonds were used…but I used the slivered as the recipe requested…I thought the dip was a bit on the salty side…but no one else thought so…its also delicious warmed up …but I noticed it developed a pool of grease…this made a beautiful presentation…
What about adding diced chicken and a little more mayo to this?
A friend made this and it was absolutely amazing !! I’m not a big onion fan but I was surprised !!! I cant wait to try it this weekend for super
bowl
Amazing and easy dip. Will definitely make a go to dip.
Dip! Yum! I think we’re going to have this for supper tonight!
NEVER EVER try to substitute REAL Mayonnaise with Miracle whip – there is a
BIG difference in taste
I just made this for a potluck Oscar party tonight. I made it per the recipe, refrigerated it and then tasted it. It needed some salt, pepper and garlic powder and now it’s perfect! I will make this again!
The best dip, made it for a party gone in 1/2 hr
I don’t like much salt do to medications I take, what can be added to absorb the salt? Also I’d probably heat mine up! Can’t wait to try it!!!
I think it’s delicious! I’d love to try cream cheese instead of mayo. As far as the green onions I love the amount bit I’m from Louisiana where green onions are widely used. Thanks!
My mom served this at a party and now I’m addicted. I don’t find the onions overpowering at all.
That is great to hear! Thanks for sharing! Have a great day!
Your Recipe Critic,
Alyssa
Didn’t change a thing and it was absolutely delicious!! A get together favourite!!
AWE!! Thank you so much, that is sweet of you!! XOXO
I have not been able to stop eating this dip! Just be sure it has plenty of time to sit, mine was great the next day.
That is awesome!! I am in love with it too!! XOXO
We made this with chicken and left the almonds out in case of anyone having peanut allergies and it was AMAZING!!! Thanks for sharing the recipe!!
Your recipes make me hiungry!
YAY!! That is just what I love to hear! I am so happy! I hope you are able to find some that you love! Thanks so much for following along with me! XOXO
Has anyone tried avocado oil mayonnaise for the recipe?
Alyssa, this dip looks fabulous and easy. I am having a party next weekend, and I am trying to figure out if I need to double it or not. I am having 16 people. What do you think?
It will feed about 8-10 people. If you have other appetizers and snacks I think you would be great with just one serving. You are always welcome to double it and have leftovers. XOXO
Every time I make this I am asked for the recipe by multiple guests!! It is a sure winner. I do add some garlic powder and some hot sauce to spice it up again and serve with wheat thins! I have also substituted creamed cheese for the mayonnaise. Best Foods /Helms Mayonnaise works best!!
It is easy and expensive and always turns out perfectly.
