Equipment
- skillet
Ingredients
- 6 ounces uncooked bacon about 6 slices
- 3 medium tomatoes equal 2 cups chopped
- 1/3 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup sour cream
Instructions
- If you start with a 12 ounce package of bacon, cut it in half crosswise so you have 6 ounces of bacon or just remove 6 slices of bacon. Keep the bacon stacked together and slice the bacon crosswise into 1/2-inch thick pieces. No need to separate the pieces yet.
- Place the bacon in a cold skillet and turn the heat to medium. Cook the bacon, stirring occasionally to break up the bacon about 6 minutes or until the bacon is browned and crisp. The bacon separates easily as it warms up in the skillet.
- Drain the bacon on paper towels and let cool.
- While bacon cooks (don't forget to stir occasionally), slice the tomatoes in half crosswise/horizontally. Gently squeeze the tomato pulp and seeds into a small bowl. (Save this to make a fresh tomato vinaigrette-see my tip on the post). Chop the tomatoes and place in a medium size bowl.
- Add the cooked bacon, mayonnaise, and sour cream and stir until combined. At this point, you can add a little salt and pepper if you like but it's pretty salty already. Serve with corn chip scoops or tortilla chips.
Notes
For an over-the-top BLT sammich, spread Bacon Tomato Dip between two slices of bread and add a slice or two of crisp lettuce.
