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. 
This is definitely football food at it’s finest! Grab a cracker or two and get to snackin’! You’re going to love this loaded ranch dip!

This sounds absolutely amazing. Can’t wait to try it!
Thanks Pat! I hope you love it as much as we do!
Yum! We are big time Ranch lovers, so I know this would go over well at my house. 🙂
This takes my ranch addiction to a whole new level. I bet you would enjoy this! 😉
Bring on the game day appetizers! This dip is mouthwatering and would not last long in my house!
Thanks Jen! My husband wanted it all for himself. It definitely did not last long, haha!
The food is my favorite part about game day and this dip would definitely be a hit! Love all those yummy toppings!
The toppings, take ordinary ranch dip over the top! It’s so delicious! Thanks Kelly!
Oh my goodness! Forget healthy recipes… just give me a huge bowl of this dip!! This looks sooooo yummy! <3
Thanks Jess! It’s pretty dang addicting! That’s for sure!
I’ve been making this for a while. It’s my husband’s favorite – with one difference. He loves about two teaspoons of horseradish mixed in. It’s not too hot. Just gives it a nice pop!
Great idea! Thanks for sharing!
Does anyone know if this can be warmed in the oven for a few minutes?
You can definitely try it. I would guess it would take about 20-30 minutes at 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Let me know how it turns out if you try it like that!
Heated it up for 375 for 20mins. It’s phenomenal!
Ooh yum! Will have to try it that way! Thanks for your comment Melissa!
Just made this for the game today. It’s barely made it into my bowl to take to the party haha! Great recipe!
Haha! I’m so glad you liked it!
