No Name Dip
Creamy, cheesy, and packed with bacon and green onions, this easy no-bake dip is perfect with crackers, chips, or fresh veggies.
Equipment

- hand mixer (optional)
- spatula
Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened

- 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- ¾ cup cooked bacon crumbled (or real bacon bits)
- 3 tablespoons sliced green onions plus more for topping
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley optional
- salt to taste (start with none and add only if needed)
Instructions
- Add softened cream cheese to a mixing bowl.
- Add sour cream and mayonnaise. Mix until smooth.
- Stir in garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and parsley (if using).

Notes
For the thickest dip, use full-fat cream cheese and sour cream.
Crisp bacon gives the best texture—cool it completely before mixing in.
Taste before adding salt. Bacon and cheddar can be plenty salty on their own.
