Ingredients
- 1/2 pound lean ground beef
- 6 slices bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces (I used turkey bacon)
- 1 small to medium onion, diced (I used a medium-sized onion, since I like onion!)
- 1 to 2 cloves garlic, minced (I used 2 cloves)
- 4 ounces (light or regular) cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup (light or regular) sour cream
- 1/4 cup (light or regular) mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 Tablespoons ketchup
- Tortilla chips or scoops, or a sliced baguette
- Optional garnishes: shredded lettuce, diced fresh tomatoes, chopped dill pickles, cooked and crumbled bacon
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350˚F.
Cook the ground beef in a pan over medium heat; drain grease and remove ground beef from pan.
Next, cook the bacon in the pan until crispy, about 6 to 10 minutes. Drain all but 1 Tablespoon of the grease from the pan. Add the diced onion to this pan and sauté in the Tablespoon of grease until tender, about 5 to 7 minutes. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
In a large bowl (or in your pan, if it’s big enough) mix together the ground beef, bacon, onion, and garlic. Then add in the softened cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheeses, Worcestershire sauce, and ketchup, mixing everything together.
Pour into a pie plate or baking dish and bake at 350˚F for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the top starts turning light golden brown and sides are bubbling.
Garnish top of dip with shredded lettuce, diced fresh tomatoes, chopped dill pickles, and/or cooked and crumbled bacon.
Serve with toasted or heated baguette slices or tortilla chips or scoops.
