BLT Dip

It's Week 2 of my Personal PIGskin Challenge and here's a great dip truly worth making while we can still get some garden ripe tomatoes. Super simple and a big party favorite! I only ask one thing... don't hate me when you keep going back for "just one more bite":@) This recipe is from Paula Deen and I see many variations out there, but this one's just perfect to me!
 Note: If you choose to serve this with potato chips they need to be the sturdier "ridges" type.
Pictured is a half batch and in true Paula fashion-it is dangerously good:@)

 BLT Dip
1 C mayonnaise
1 C sour cream
Iceburg lettuce, shredded-chop it a bit too so there aren't long strings
2 large vine ripened tomatoes, seeded and diced
1 lb bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled-um yes, that does say 1 lb...
Crackers, potato chips, tortilla chips, bagel chips, toast points, etc. for serving.
-Mix mayo and sour cream, spread into bottom of pie plate or serving bowl.
-Layer the lettuce, tomatoes and bacon.

I said it was easy, right?
My only tip would be, prepping ingredients separately ahead of time is fine,
but assemble right before serving.
Have a happy day!

    Yes ma'am! Pass the chips and dip! I'm thinking this would be good on a baked potato too.

    Best,

    I think you've just kicked the traditional BLT up a notch Lynn. I would definitely not be safe near that bowl and neither would the dip.

    YUM, bacon! Yes ma'am I sure have put away my bikini for the season! hehe I could even make this fit into my low carb diet if I skipped the crackers and just ate it with a spoon :) Hope you are having a great week.

    Oh my! I could definitely eat that entire platter. I like my bacon super crispy. When I eat breakfast out I order it burned--that's the only way they really get it right! Linda
