Dip: Microwave cream cheese on medium (50%) for 30 seconds. Mix cream cheese, salad dressing, Swiss cheese and onions until well blended. Spoon into 2 1/2 cup casserole or 9 inch pie plate. Microwave on high 4 minutes or until thoroughly heated, turning dish every 2 minutes. Sprinkle with combined bacon and cracker crumbs.

Crisps: Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cut each bread round into 8ths. Split each triangle in half along outside seam. Spread rough side of each triangle with butter; sprinkle with sesame seeds.
