Loaded Ranch Dip + Video
Loaded Ranch Dip – A loaded baked potato inspired this chip dip full of bacon, cheese, green onions, and ranch dressing mix. A delicious party dip or game day appetizer.
Well, the healthy recipes didn’t last long around here. Haha! Don’t get me wrong, I’m still doing my health challenge, and kicking butt I might add. I actually made this for New Year’s Eve and saved the recipe for now, just in time to inspire your game day grub!
I love good company, and good food, and this dip is insanely delicious! It’s basically a ranch dip (sour cream, mayo, and ranch mix) with all the fixings of a loaded baked potato: bacon, cheese, green onions. It’s thick and delicious! You will need sturdy crackers for this one. We used Sour Cream & Chive Triscuit Thin Crisps, but Wheat Thins would be yummy too.

I made this as a dip..I then used it on a baked potato..omg it was the best potato I have ever had!!!
I’m definitely going to have to try that! Thanks for sharing Tracy!
The ingredients In the dip sounded awesome. I made it for thanksgiving. It was a great texture. I just found it much too salty and a bit too much garlic. Seemed the men in the family enjoyed it most. I’ll have to find a way to reduce the amount of saltiness, must be the ranch dressing.
Thank you
Yes, the ranch seasoning, bacon, and cheese all have a fair amount of salt to them. Hopefully you find a better balance for your tastes.
Looks tasty. This would be a great dip for SuperBowl
Can this be frozen? I just need to keep a small portion for a week. I made this for work, and won FIRST Prize in a dip contest! I had to make it again, and made extra to take to a relative, but trip is being delayed by a week. I see there is a way to freeze some sour cream. Again, they just want to taste the “award winning” recipe, so just a little is needed
I’m worried the texture might be funky, but it doesn’t hurt to try! It might separate, but hopefully you can stir it up and smooth it out. Let me know how it goes if you try it!
It was delicious! My coworkers completely polished it off… 🙂
Awesome!!! Glad it was a hit!
Super excited! I have this blending in the fridge right now to take to a work potluck tomorrow (gonna add the green onions in the morning though). I used full fat everything!!! Bwahahaha!
I hope you enjoyed this dip!
Love this dip. I accidentally put in cream cheese once and found when heated it was even better.
Ooh! I’ll have to try that!
