The Best BLT Dip
SUBMITTED BY:
Christine
"I cannot go to a gathering, event or party without someone asking me if I brought my BLT dip...a crowd pleaser! Have your guests dip the toast triangles in the dip and wait for the ooh's and ahh's. The toast is what makes this recipe a genuine BLT impersonator!"

DIRECTIONS
In a large skillet, brown entire pound of bacon until crisp, placing cooked strips on paper towels to absorb grease.
For best results, finely chop bacon in a food processor or with a hand blender, but finely chopping by hand will also work.
In a large mixing bowl, blend bacon, tomato and jar of mayonnaise. Add half the container of sour cream, blend well. Add more sour cream by spoonfuls, until the mixture isn't overwhelmed by the taste of mayonnaise (you'll be left with about a cup or so of sour cream, typically). LIGHTLY coat the top of the mix with garlic powder, and blend. Add a dash of salt and pepper to taste. Toast the bread, then cut into fours.

This is a great dip, however I made a few modifications the second time I made it. The original dip had too much mayo, it also yielded too much dip overall and the ratio of bacon was off. So I used 1 cup of mayo, 2 cups of sour cream, 1 lb of bacon, 1/4 tsp of garlic powder, 1 tomato, and salt and pepper to taste. For dipping I put out a fresh loaf of sourdough bread cut up in chunks. It was a huge hit!

This is similar to another recipe on this site (blt dip) and the results are pretty much the same, although I liked the garlic powder addition. I again used "real bacon bits" (oscar mayer) and added some Tastefully Simple Bacon Bacon. For those who had a problem with the dip tasting like mayo, it really should be refrigerated for a few hours before serving, or even tasting it, as the flavors really need to meld. Thanks Christine!

I just can't seriously believe the submitter of this recipe meant 4 cups mayonnaise, plus 2-3 cups sour cream. Something must have gotten changed before the recipe was posted.

I have made both recipes for BLT dip from this site and the other one is better. This one has way too much mayo and sour cream. They overtake the flavor of the bacon and the tomato. I wasn't fond of the garlic either. Otherwise the dips (either of them) are great party pleasers.

I think the measurments are way off on this one. Too much mayo and sourcream and not enough of the tomato and bacon. I cut this back to a cup of each and then added the rest of the ingredients as listed. Served this in a hollowed out bread bowl and toasted the the soft bread pieces. To keep the bacon crispy I added it just before serving, however, I made the dip the night before in order for the flavors to engage. With a few modifications it was gobbled up at our party. Thank you Christine!

I made this recipe for a party and it was a big hit among the people who like mayo. I made only 1/2 a recipe with a full pound of bacon. I thought it needed a little spicing up so I added about 1/2 a packet of ranch dip mix, some onion powder, salt and pepper and about 3 green onions (also the onions sprinkled on top made the dish more colorful) I also changed the recipe to be equal parts mayo and sour cream. I served it with cut up bread but the leftovers were good w/ anything from crackers and chips to spread on plain white bread. I will make this recipe again for sure, although next time I am going to spice it up even a bit more

Very good only if you let it blend for a few hours in the fridge first. I didn't change a thing and am very pleased with the results.

As written this recipe quantities are out of whack. I did as another reviewer suggested and only used 1 cup of mayo & about 2 cups of sour cream. Along with the tomato and pound of bacon I added minced onion instead of garlic powder. I had no leftovers.

I normally don't cook simple foods such as this, but this is definitely a crowd pleaser for guests that don't care for sophisticated fare. For a Christmas party with children I used a cookie cutter to make festive toast shapes (cut BEFORE) you toast) and lightly toasted in the oven for three minutes each side at 375 degrees, on a grill rack. I agree with another cook, I doubled the bacon for a more intense BLT flavor.
