Bacon Tomato Dip (BT Dip)


1 cup mayonnaise
1 16 oz. container of sour cream
6 plum tomatoes diced up
2 containers of real bacon bits


Mix all ingredients together in a bowl and chill for an hour. The longer it sits, the better the flavor. Serve with potato chips (our favorite), wheat thins or other cracker or vegetable of your choice. This is a quick, easy-to-make, tasty and refreshing summer dip!
