Scale
Base Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese (softened)
- 2/3 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 3/4 teaspoon seasoned salt
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
Mix-ins and Toppings
- 8 slices bacon
- 1 cup romaine lettuce (chopped)
- 1 cup tomatoes (diced)
- 1/4 cup green onions (thinly sliced)
Serving
- Crackers or toasted bread (for serving)
Instructions
- Cook bacon: Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until it is crispy. Transfer the cooked bacon to paper towels to drain excess grease and then crumble it into small pieces.
- Mix base: In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, seasoned salt, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix thoroughly until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.
- Spread mixture: Stir in about two-thirds of the crumbled bacon into the creamy base to incorporate the smoky flavor. Then, spread the mixture evenly in a shallow serving dish to prepare for garnishing.
- Garnish: Top the spread with chopped romaine lettuce, diced tomatoes, and thinly sliced green onions. Sprinkle the remaining bacon pieces on top for an extra crispy finish.
- Chill: Refrigerate the dip for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld and the dip to firm up slightly.
- Serve: Serve chilled with crackers or toasted bread for dipping.
Notes
- For best flavor, use freshly cooked bacon rather than pre-cooked bacon bits.
- You can substitute romaine with iceberg lettuce for a crunchier texture.
- This dip can be made a few hours ahead and stored covered in the refrigerator.
- Try serving with pita chips or vegetable sticks for a healthier option.
- If you prefer less tang, reduce the sour cream slightly and increase the mayonnaise.
