BLT DIP

One of the most popular sandwiches, the BLT is a classic. For good reason, who doesn’t love bacon, crunchy lettuce, and fresh juicy home-grown tomatoes?! I makes perfect sense to use these flavor combinations in more than just a sandwich. I love a creamy dip and BLT dip takes the great flavors of the sandwich and transforms into a creamy appetizer!

The creamy base is made with

  • Mayo – I recommend Blue Plate or Duke’s mayonnaise.
  • Cream cheese – I recommend block cream cheese. You can use either low-fat or regular for serving cold. However, I recommend regular if you plan to serve it hot. The cream cheese also needs to be at room temperature. It’s much easier to mix with the other ingredients at room temp. I recommend setting it out on the kitchen counter 1-2 hours before you plan on preparing your dip.
  • Ranch seasoning – You can make it from scratch or purchase it here.
  • Pepper jack cheese – You can substitute any cheese. I do enjoy the spice of pepper jack. As well, I recommend you shred it yourself instead of purchasing pre-shredded cheese.

The fresh topping ingredients are

  • bacon
  • lettuce
  • tomatoes
  • green onions

If you plan to serve this dip hot, you bake the base ingredients until hot and bubbly. Then allow it to cool a little and top with bacon, lettuce, tomato, and green onions. Additionally, lettuce is optional if you serve it hot. Lettuce will wilt if you add it to the dip when it’s too hot.

You can make this recipe 4 to 6 hours early.

As well, if serving cold refrigerate it after a couple of hours sitting out.

    You can’t go wrong with anything with bacon when bringing something to a crowd. I love this type of dish which tastes like bacon, but I am not eating piece after piece of bacon.
