Ingredients:

• 6 slices bacon, chopped

• 1 (8-oz.) package cream cheese, softened

• 1/2 c. sour cream, room temperature

• 2 Tbsp. ranch seasoning mix

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.

2. In a 12-inch skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat, stirring often until crispy, about 8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove the bacon from the pan to a paper towel-lined plate.

3. In a medium bowl, use a rubber spatula to soften the cream cheese until very creamy and smooth. Add the sour cream and the ranch seasoning mix, whisking until very well combined. Fold in 1 1/2 cups of cheddar cheese, ham, pimientos, 3 sliced green onions, and all but ¼ cup of the bacon.

4. Spoon the mixture into a 1 quart casserole dish. Top with the remaining ½ cup of cheddar cheese and reserved ¼ cup of bacon.
