Ingredients

1 (8-ounce) package Applegate Naturals ^® No Sugar Bacon
2 cups sour cream
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 bunch scallions, finely chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon chopped chives
Potato chips, for serving

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F.
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Arrange the bacon in a single layer on the lined baking sheet.
Bake until the bacon is browned and crisp, turning once, 15 to 18 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer bacon to a paper towel–lined plate to cool.
When cool, finely chop the bacon; set aside 2 tablespoons of the bacon to use as a garnish.
Meanwhile, stir together the sour cream, mayonnaise and scallions in a bowl. Add the majority of the chopped bacon. Season with salt and plenty of black pepper.
Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with the chives and reserved bacon. Serve with potato chips.
