Ranch Crack Dip is a delicious and easy recipe for a vegetable or chip dip, or as a topping for chili, soups, and stews! It’s my Chicken Bacon Ranch sauce minus the bacon and cheese, and it’s a simple homemade ranch dip that you can feel good about serving.
This Ranch Dip is a recipe taken directly from my Chicken Bacon Ranch recipe, based on the crazy amount of feedback I’ve received from my readers about how they love to use the “sauce” as a vegetable dip and topping for chilis and soups.

Ranch Dip without Chicken
This Ranch Dip is perfect for your party dips–especially if you’re hosting March Madness events at your house! It’s easy to transport (you can add it right back in the sour cream container!) and will impress fellow partygoers.

I just made this for my Thanksgiving Veggie Tray. It is in the fridge right now. However, even befoe sitting for the ingredients to blend… it’s Wonderful! I used only organic spices and Greek Yogurt instead of Sour Cream. Thank you, Becca!
Yay! I’m so glad you like it! Happy Thanksgiving, Star :)
Thank you for this recipe! I used all organic ingredients and It is the ONLY dip recipe I use for our organic chips. This recipe is legit and so satisfying! FIVE STARS BABY! 😉
We don’t keep garlic salt, so I used 3/4 tsp of granulated garlic and 1/2 tsp of sea salt and it worked well. Thank you for this recipe everyone loves it!
Yay!! I’m so glad you liked it!
