A creamy and savory dip featuring bacon, tomatoes, and a blend of cheeses, perfect for any gathering.
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise until smooth.
Ensure the cream cheese is at room temperature for easier mixing.
Add the shredded cheddar cheese, chopped onion, diced green bell pepper, garlic powder, and black pepper to the bowl. Mix well.
Grate the cheese fresh for a more robust flavor.
Fold in the chopped tomato and crumbled bacon gently to maintain their texture.
Cook the bacon until crispy for the best texture.
Transfer the mixture to a serving dish and garnish with shredded lettuce just before serving.
Add the lettuce garnish right before serving to keep it fresh and crisp.
Serve with crackers, bread cubes, or vegetable sticks for dipping.
Arrange the dippers around the dip for an inviting presentation.
