A new take on an old classic. Posted by request. I recommend using light mayo and light Breakstone sour cream.

B. L. T. Dip ( Bacon, Lettuce and Tomato) BLT

sour cream

mayonnaise

lbs sliced bacon,

plum tomatoes, chopped

green onions, chopped

assorted crackers or chips

In a bowl, combine the sour cream, mayonnaise, bacon, tomatoes and onions.

I have a few major issues with this recipe.  First, the fat content.  Does anyone care that 1 serving is 84% of their daily value of fat?  And where exactly is the lettuce?  We can do better I think.  My suggestions to make it better, cut the mayo in half, I would say use fat free mayo, but I can't stand the stuff myself.  Use 3 cups of fat free sour cream to make up the difference.  Use only a quarter of the prescribed bacon; two pounds is a bit much.  When I made this I used a quarter pound and it was plenty.  Bake your bacon on a wire rack as to allow most of the fat to drain away, and cook it crispy.  I added 10 plum tomatoes and seeded them before dicing.  It kept the added moisture under control.  I like green onions, so I used about 1/2 cups worth, or about 6 onions.  I used endive and romaine hearts instead of the crackers or chips.  While I cut out a lot of the fat, I didn't cut out it all and it still tasted wonderful and got rave reviews from my guests.
