This receipe is great! The only thing I have to say about the recipe is that it doesn't make a ton of dip. I would guess the servings to be closer to 10 or 12. It all depends on how big you consider a serving, but because of how good it is, better to be safe than sorry.

This dip was great! I made it for a New Year's Eve party and was so well liked and easy that my husband made it for a New Year's Day party. The bacon really adds a nice smokey flavor to the dip and the onions give it a slightly spicy taste. I didn't set the dip in the refrigerator overnight like the recipe states since I didn't have time, but it still tasted great! In fact, I don't know if that step is necessary because when I tasted it the next day it seemed the same to me. So if you're hesitant to try it because you're making it at the last minute, it will turn out just fine. This will be a dip that I make often whenever I need something easy and quick to take somewhere. Thank you for the recipe, Luanne!

My family absolutely LOVED this recipe. It's become a new holiday favorite of ours. We made it for Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years. I preferred it a few days later then when freshly made. YUM!

This is great! I've made almost the exact same dip before without cream cheese, and the addition of it made it really nice and creamy. Both ways are good though. I cooked and crumbled my own bacon. I had to omit the green onions because I forgot to buy them but I know that would have made it even better.

I used my own homemade dry ranch dressing mix and upped the onions. I also splurged and used real bacon, a half pound that I cooked to a crisp and crumbled. The cheese I used was sharp cheddar. I threw this together early this morning and let it set most of the day until I got home from work, my husband and I have eaten most of it--there's nothing left for Christmas. Whoops. We loved it!

Recipe Group Selection: 17, Dec. 2011 - Excellent dip! We have used this on baked potatoes and crackers. Our favorite was when I stuffed celery stalks with it. There is a lot of flavor to this. Found that it works best if left out of the fridge for about 30 minutes before using on potatoes or spreading in celery. Thanks Luanne A. for sharing this recipe. UPDATE: We spread on French bread slices and popped the bread under the broiler. It made for a yummy, creamy treat.

This was delish! Next time I might add some chopped roasted jalapenos. Perfect dip,spread, or topping. Thank you Luanne. This is a winner!

I thought this tasted good. I made 1/2 recipe with some leftover cream cheese and sour cream. That amount made about 1-1 1/2 cups. I used all the ingredients except I used low-fat dairy and for the bacon I used pre-cooked thick cut bacon. I microwaved the bacon and then crumbled it very fine. I tasted it with crackers and pretzels, but it honestly had the most baked potato flavor with potato chips. I wouldn't subtitute anything different other than them. This will work good for a pot-luck or party. It is like other cream cheese, sour cream, and seasoning dips but better with the bacon and cheese.

This dip is wonderful! Tried it for the first time last weekend for a party and it was a total hit! People LOVED it! Making it again this weekend for tailgating! This has become my new "go to"- very simple and very delicious!

I thought this was a nice change of pace from a normal ranch dip. I served with potato chips, but might look for something a little less salty the next time.
