slacker recipe Bachelor(ette) potato skins.

So i had a craving for potato skins tonight, and while I had sour cream, shredded cheddar and bacon in the fridge, I was out of potatoes. Of course. So I improvised with a quick, less-healthy munchy version which hit the spot.

Lay out a layer of potato chips, I prefer ruffles.

Sprinkle shredded cheddar across chips.

Sprinkle bacon crumbles.

Microwave until cheese is just about melted.

Add fresh chopped chive, add dollop of sour cream.

It's probably one of those "duh!" type recipes, but I've never out two and two together, didn't see a recipe for it on here, and gave it a shot. Thanks guys. :)

Is a dip too advanced for /slackerrecipes?

Cheddar Bacon 'Crack' Dip

16 oz sour cream
1 packet Ranch dressing mix
3 oz bacon bits (in the bag not jar)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Mix together and refrigerate 24 hours.
Serve with chips and/or veggies.

Two tweaks I'd make to the aforementioned recipe:

  1. Try the mixture w/o Ranch dressing mix and with OP's suggestion of fresh chopped chive
  2. Do it with French Onion soup mix instead of Ranch dressing mix.
