Ingredients

8 oz. cream cheese softened
1 cup sour cream or mayo
2 Tablespoons Ranch seasoning mix (not ranch dressing)
½ teaspoon garlic powder
1 Roma tomato finely diced
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup iceberg lettuce finely shredded
6 slices thick cut bacon cooked and crumbled

Instructions

Combine the cream cheese, sour cream, Ranch seasoning, and garlic powder. I like to throw in 2-3 strips of cooked/crumbled bacon and use the rest for the topping.
Spread the dip onto the bottom of a 9-inch serving bowl. (A pie pan works well.) I leave a small perimeter around the edge of the serving bowl and fill up that space with lettuce.
Add the diced tomatoes followed by the shredded cheese and crumbled bacon. Serve! (See notes for tips on what to serve this with.)

Notes

For Serving:

Chips: I love serving this with Pita Chips (Stacy's and Town House are my favorites.) Bagel Chips, Tortilla Chips, and Potato Chips work too!
Vegetables: Baby Carrots/Carrot Sticks, Sliced Cucumbers, Bell Peppers, Celery, and Cherry Tomatoes are all really great with this dip.
Bread: Crusty Artisan, Sourdough, and Naan Bread are all delicious options as well.

Pro Tips:

Diced Green Onions or chives are really good in the cream cheese/sour cream mixture or on top.
Diced Avocado makes a great topping as well. Wait on dicing it until just ready to serve.
I like to place the diced tomatoes on top of paper towels and to absorb excess moisture so they're not wet when added to the dip.
Serve this with my Homemade Tortilla Chips and be sure to try my Spinach and Artichoke dip and Jalapeno Popper Dip recipes next!

Make-Ahead Method:

Combine the cream cheese, sour cream, ranch seasoning, garlic powder.
Store in an airtight container or a covered serving dish for up to 2 days.
The day before serving: Dice the tomatoes, shred the lettuce and cheese cheese, and cook/crumble the bacon. Place them in separate Ziploc bags and add them just before serving.
