Here’s how to make this Creamy and Savory No Name Dip:
The No Name Dip
Ingredients:
- 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 packet ranch seasoning mix
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup chopped green onions
- 1/2 cup cooked and crumbled bacon
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (optional)
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Tortilla chips, crackers, or fresh vegetables for serving
Directions:
- Mix the Base:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and ranch seasoning mix.
- Use an electric mixer or a whisk to beat the ingredients until the mixture is smooth and well combined. The cream cheese should be fully incorporated into the sour cream, creating a creamy base.
- Add the Mix-ins:
- Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green onions, crumbled bacon, and garlic powder. These ingredients add texture, flavor, and a bit of crunch to the dip.
- Season the dip with salt and pepper to taste, adjusting the seasoning as needed.
- If desired, stir in the chopped fresh parsley. The parsley adds a fresh, herbaceous note and a pop of color to the dip.
- Chill the Dip:
- Transfer the dip to a serving bowl.
- Refrigerate the dip for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together and the dip to firm up slightly. This step enhances the overall taste and texture of the dip.
- Serve:
- Serve the dip chilled with your choice of tortilla chips, crackers, or fresh vegetables like carrot sticks, celery, and bell pepper slices.
