We all know BLT stands for Bacon, Lettuce, and Tomato, but what you didn’t know is that it also stands for “delicious dip.” That’s right, this recipe turns sour cream, crispy bacon, diced tomato, shredded lettuce, and Carolina® Jasmine Rice into a tasty dip that is perfect for sharing at your next gathering. Pair it with your favorite pita or corn chips and watch it all disappear.
Rice Bowl Versatility
The possibilities are endless when your base ingredients are Bacon, Lettuce, and Tomato. Be bold and experiment with some different flavors! Try the BLT Dip recipe with our naturally-flavored Jasmine Rice seasoned with garlic and olive oil instead of the original Jasmine Rice for some added flavors. You can even add corn cut fresh right off the cob or from a can to add a little crunch.
Want to play with different bacon options? Please do! This recipe is just as delicious with turkey, vegetarian, or vegan bacon. You can even have it for breakfast by topping it with a poached or fried egg.
And if you’re as crazy about avocado as most, you can swap some of that in for a lighter meal. Instead of using sour cream and mayo for this recipe, use avocado and top with a lime and oil dressing.
