Can I Freeze Keto Queso Dip?
You can easily freeze this homemade keto queso dip for later if you want to extend its shelf life.
Before freezing the dip, you’ll first want to make sure that you allow it to cool completely. Then transfer the dip into a freezer-safe airtight container before tossing it in the freezer; it should keep for up to 4-6 months.
Alternatively, you can just keep your dip stored in the fridge like this for up to one week.
