Instructions:

1. Prepare Bacon: In a pan over medium-high heat, cook the 6 slices thick-cut bacon, chopped, until it is crispy. Once cooked, drain the chopped bacon on a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess grease. Set aside.
2. Make Ranch Base: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the 1 cup sour cream, 8 oz. softened cream cheese, and 1 oz. pkg. ranch mix until the mixture is smooth and well combined. Set aside.
3. Assemble the Dip: Choose a clear glass serving dish (a trifle dish or a wide, shallow glass bowl works best to showcase the layers). Spread the prepared ranch mixture evenly across the bottom of the serving dish to form the first layer. Carefully top with the remaining salad ingredients, creating distinct layers in the following order:
   • Chopped chicken breast
   • Chopped romaine lettuce
   • Finely diced Roma tomatoes
   • Chopped hard-boiled eggs
   • Thinly sliced green onions
   • Grilled corn kernels
   • Chopped crispy bacon
   • Bleu cheese crumbles
4. Chill: Once assembled, cover the dish with plastic wrap and let it sit in the refrigerator for 30 minutes up to 2 hours before serving. This chilling time allows the flavors to meld and the dip to firm up slightly.
5. Serve: Serve the 7 Layer Cobb Salad Dip chilled. Enjoy it with your favorite dippers, such as club crackers, pita chips, or sturdy vegetable sticks.
