Ingredients

• 1 tbsp 1 extra virgin olive oil

• 1/4 lb 1/4 double smoked slab of bacon, diced small

• 1 1 onion, diced small

• 1/2 tsp 1/2 kosher salt & black pepper, to taste

• 1 cup 1 yogurt or sour cream

• 1/2 cup 1/2 shredded cheddar cheese

• 2 tbsp 2 chives

• pita chips, Ruffles chips, carrots, or Ritz crackers for dipping

Directions

• Place the olive oil and bacon in a medium skillet and place over medium heat. Cook the bacon, stirring often, until it is golden brown and crispy, about 8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove the bacon to a paper towel lined plate.
• Add the onion to the pan with the bacon fat and cook slowly, stirring often until deeply caramelized, about 15 minutes. Add them to the bowl with the bacon. Let cool for about 5 minutes.
• Stir in the yogurt or sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese and chives. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour to let the flavors mingle. Serve with pita chips, Ruffles chips, carrots, or Ritz crackers.
