Bread Bowl Cheese Dip

Don't worry - you have plenty of time to make this before the big game.  The tang of the Greek yogurt and the hint of garlic blend together perfectly for this cheese dip.  The bacon is a bonus and optional.

Bread Bowl Cheese Dip

1 Sour Dough bread bowl
8 oz cream cheese, softened
2 cups Colby/Monterey Jack shredded cheese
3 oz Greek yogurt
1/2 cup sour cream
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 lb bacon, cooked and drained

Cut off top of sour dough bowl and scoop out insides.  You can cut the inside bread into cubes and lightly toast to use to dip into the cheese.  Cut bacon into 1/2" pieces (I cut off the fat) and cook.  Drain on paper towels and allow to cool.  In a medium sized bowl, combine cheeses, yogurt, sour cream and garlic.  Mix in bacon, when cooled, and scoop into the bread bowl.  Place bread bowl into an aluminum foil wrapper (use 2 pieces and place in a large plus sign).  Bake for 1 hour at 350°.
