Praise the Lord Dip!

Blogger friends, I have found the new "holiday" dip for this year!

I am a frequent visitor to BooMama's blog site - never met her, but I am sure we would be best of friends, and today she listed a recipe that I seriously, just had to make - right then, and there and luckily I had the ingredients. Well, I was missing one of them, but I made a substitution and wow- it is really awesome. I have renamed it "Praise the Lord Dip" - because, honestly - it will make you praise Him for the blessings of cheese, bacon and other delectable ingredients in this dish, just as BooMama said in her recipe.

Copy it - make it for your next holiday party - give the credit to BooMama, me and the Good Lord. Oh - and Muni's - ya'll will get this our holiday Festivus party -- yipee!!


PRAISE THE LORD DIP
formerly known as
Captain Rodney Cheese Bake, aka
THE BEST THING YOU WILL EVER EAT IN YOUR WHOLE LIFE EVER courtesy of BooMama's Blog,

1/2 cup mayonnaise
8 oz. cream cheese-softened
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
2 green onions chopped (I didn't have any - the dish survived without them - I did put a dash of garlic powder in just for kick.)
6 Ritz crackers crumbled
8 slices cooked, crumbled bacon
1/2 cup of your favorite BBQ sauce - my substitution for 1/2 cup Boucan Sauce (if you have this sauce, by all means use it - if not, honestly the bbq sauce is great on this dish.

Mix first 4 ingredients, then spread in a square casserole dish. Sprinkle crackers on top. Bake at 350 for 15 minutes. Then sprinkle bacon on top and drizzle sauce over all. Serve with your favorite crackers, pita chips, etc.
Then praise the Lord.
I made this and found that it is really better at room temperature, rather than hot from the oven. Just my preference, you eat it however you want to. Just eat it - it is yummy!
Merry, Merry,
Beverly
