½ cup chopped green onions
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauc
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Assorted dippers (tortilla chips, vegetable sticks, crackers)
Prepare the Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sour cream and mayonnaise. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
Add Cheese and Bacon: Mix in the shredded cheddar cheese and crumbled bacon, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the base.
Incorporate Seasonings: Add the chopped green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce to the mixture. Stir until all ingredients are well combined.
Season to Taste: Season with salt and pepper according to your preference. Remember, the bacon and cheese add some saltiness, so adjust accordingly.
Chill: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the dip to an airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld. For best results, let it chill for 2-3 hours or overnight.
Serve: Before serving, give the dip a good stir. If it appears too thick, add a splash of milk or more mayonnaise to reach your desired consistency. Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Arrange your choice of dippers around the bowl and enjoy!
