Welcome!

Welcome to Simple Fare, Fairly Simple. This is a place for me to post recipes of all kinds...along with other miscellaneous fodder from my so-called life here in the south. Who knows what you will find here. Could be anything from my husband...known as IT Guy...to my kids and beautiful grandbabies that are growing up way too fast right before my eyes. But...mostly this will be a place for food. I hope you'll see something you like and if you decide to try something from the list...leave me a comment and let me know!

I love BLT sandwiches. Actually what I love more than that are BLA sandwiches.....take away the tomato and introduce avocado! The best sandwich ever! But..my mission was to create a dip using BLT ingredients. Ta-da!!! Here you go! We used pita chips as dippers, but little toasts would be fun!!

BLT Dip



1/2 cup mayonnaise
4 ounces cream cheese
1 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon seasoning salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons finely chopped green onion
1 large tomato, seeded and diced
1 pound bacon, crispy, diced and cooked crispy

Mix all the ingredients together except the bacon.

Chill for several hours.

Just before serving, stir in the bacon.

Serve with pita chips.


The cast of characters.


Fry up the bacon and set it aside.


Mix everything except the bacon in a bowl...


...and throw it in the fridge for a while.


Stir in the cooked bacon.


Serve with chips or tiny toasts!!
