Food Friday - Bacon Double Cheese Burger Dip

If you have followed this blog for long, you have learned that we enjoy little appetizer parties therefore I am always looking for new recipes.  I've tried a lot over the past year and only a couple have made the cut.  When I came across this recipe - well it looked hopeful, and it did not disappoint.

I have to apologize - I took this photo on the second helping of the dip.  So yes, it is THAT good!  Wow.  I am a huge fan of worcestershire sauce so when I saw that as an ingredient I knew it had to be good and I was not disappointed at all.  My husband and I ate this for dinner one night after church - it was just as it promised, a burger in a dip!

Ingredients

• 1/2 pound ground beef
• 6 strips bacon, cut into 1 inch pieces

2. Cook the bacon in the pan until crispy, about 6-10 minutes, set aside and drain all but a tablespoon of the grease.
3. Add the onion and saute until tender, about 5-7 minutes.
