3 Ingredient Bruschetta Dip

featured 3 Ingredient Bruschetta Dip with cream cheese basil pesto and italian seasoned tomatoes - Easy entertaining ideas for hosting -

Friday, I’m SO glad you are here! Today I’m sharing another simple appetizer recipe with you guys. This one is super easy and only takes a few ingredients! I make this 3 Ingredient Bruschetta Dip for most parties we host and take it to Flamingo Friday at least 3 – 4 times each Summer.  Sometimes I bring 2 because it gets eaten so fast!

This easy appetizer takes very little effort! No chopping, cutting and barely even a measurement! After the ingredients are assembled in the dish, you pop it in the oven to warm and then serve it with pita chips. It is such an easy and yummy dip! And you know those are pretty much the only ones I make!

Plus it has cream cheese in it and who doesn’t love cream cheese?!

3 INGREDIENT BRUSCHETTA DIP INGREDIENTS

  • 1, 8 oz block of cream cheese [I use Reduced Fat]
  • Basil Pesto [we get the big jar at Costco]
  • 1 can of diced tomatoes [Sometimes I buy Hunt’s Tomatoes – Diced Basil, Garlic & Oregano]
  • *If you buy a can of regular diced tomatoes, then you’ll need garlic powder, oregano & basil or you can use an all-in-one Italian Seasoning]

3 INGREDIENT BRUSCHETTA DIP DIRECTIONS

  1. Place block of cream cheese onto the center of your baking dish
  2. Spoon 4-5 tablespoons of the basil pesto on top of the cream cheese and spread it out evenly. Its ok to add a bit more so that it spills down the sides! I don’t really even measure!!
  3. If you are using a regular can of diced tomatoes, then strain the juice and add the tomatoes to small bowl. Add a dash of onion powder, garlic powder, oregano, Italian seasoning and salt and pepper. Then mix it up. If you buy the tomatoes with the Italian spices already in it, then simply add a dash of salt and pepper.
  4. Pour the tomatoes on top of the cream cheese and pesto.
  5. Pop in the oven for about 20 minutes at 325 degrees. You don’t want it to bake, but rather warm it throughout. If you do slightly brown the edges, that’s totally fine! 
  6. Serve with Pita chips [any variety] and enjoy!
