Ingredients
Method
Cook the Bacon:
- Fry bacon in a skillet until crispy. Drain on paper towels and crumble. Set aside.
- Make the Base:
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Mix until smooth.
Add the Cheese:
- Stir in shredded cheddar cheese until evenly combined.
Assemble the Dip:
- Spread the creamy mixture into a shallow serving dish or pie plate.
Top It Off:
- Evenly sprinkle chopped lettuce, tomatoes, and crumbled bacon over the top.
Chill (Optional):
- For best flavor, refrigerate 30 minutes before serving.
Serve:
- Pair with toasted bread, crackers, or crisp veggie dippers.
Notes
Make Ahead:
You can prepare the creamy base up to a day in advance. Add lettuce, tomatoes, and bacon just before serving to keep it fresh. Healthier Twist:
Swap sour cream for Greek yogurt and use turkey bacon. Party Style:
Serve in a clear trifle bowl or pie dish to show off the layers. Extra Flavor:
Add a sprinkle of ranch seasoning to the creamy base for a zesty kick.
