Equipment

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces cream cheese (softened)
  • ½ cup sour cream (full-fat)
  • ½ cup plain whole milk Greek yogurt
  • 1½ TBSP ranch dressing mix (homemade)
  • 1½ cups dill pickles (finely chopped)
  • 2 TBSP pickle juice (reserved from jar)
  • 4 green onions (thinly sliced)
  • ½ cup cheddar cheese (freshly shredded)
  • 4 slices bacon (cooked crispy and crumbled)
  • 1 jalapeno (optional, seeded and finely diced)
  • 1 tsp hot sauce
  • 1 tsp salt (or to taste)
  • ½ tsp black pepper

Instructions

  • Add the cream cheese, sour cream, and Greek yogurt to a large bowl. Beat together until smooth and creamy. A hand mixer gives the fluffiest texture, but a sturdy spoon works fine too.
  • Stir in the ranch seasoning, hot sauce, salt, and pepper until fully combined.
  • Add the chopped pickles, pickle juice, green onions, shredded cheddar, crumbled bacon, and jalapeño if using. Fold gently until everything is evenly distributed.
  • Taste and adjust as desired. Add more pickle juice for extra tang, more hot sauce for heat, or a pinch more salt if needed. Keep in mind the pickles are already salty so go slow.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Transfer to a serving bowl. Garnish with extra bacon crumbles, chopped pickles, or sliced green onion.

Notes

  • Serve with grain-free crackers, cucumber rounds, carrot sticks, celery, or pork rinds.
  • I also like topping the dip with some fresh dill for garnish and extra flavor.
