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.
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!

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. Iāll have to find a way to reduce the amount of saltiness, must be the ranch dressing.
Thank youĀ
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… š
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!
Second time making it. There was none left the first time, doubt any will be left tomorrow.
Haha! I’m glad it was a hit!
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!
Heated it up for 375 for 20mins. It’s phenomenal!
Ooh yum! Will have to try it that way! Thanks for your comment Melissa!
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!
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!
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!
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!
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!
Yum! We are big time Ranch lovers, so I know this would go over well at my house. š
This takes my ranch addiction to a whole new level. I bet you would enjoy this! š
This sounds absolutely amazing. Can’t wait to try it!
Thanks Pat! I hope you love it as much as we do!
