RANCH DIP WITH A TWIST
This Cheddar Ranch Dip is the perfect dip for any upcoming parties, gatherings, backyard BBQ’s and more! It’s great for entertaining, to use as an appetizer with any of your favorite dippers, and it’s great for enjoying just when you need a little tasty pick-me-up. I used to make this dip so often years ago (and I do mean years ago – about 30!) when a co-worker wrote it down for me and I recently came across it stuffed in an old cookbook and remembered all over again how much I loved it! I’ve now made it a few times since writing up this post and can’t believe I ever forgot about it!
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
Can I make this Cheddar Ranch Dip ahead of time? Yes, this dip can be made the night before you plan on serving it. Can I add some spice? Sure! Add some heat to this Cheddar Ranch Dip by adding a dash of cayenne pepper, a tablespoon of your favorite hot sauce or toss in some finely diced jalapenos. What else can I add to the dip? Try adding some crumbled bacon pieces! How to store leftover Cheddar Ranch Dip? Store your leftover dip in an airtight container and keep it in the refrigerator for up to 3-5 days. I wouldn’t try freezing this.
