Tips from the

Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    This ranch dip with cream cheese is loaded with all the flavors you can't stop eating: sour cream, dill and buttermilk-spiked ranch seasoning, green onions and crumbled bacon. Dip in off-the-shelf veggie chips or spread on toasted baguette slices.
  • tip 2
    Save time with pre-cooked slices of bacon that are reheated in the microwave just until crisp. Chop or crumble into small bits, then mix into your ranch dip.
  • tip 3
    Make this easy Cream Cheese Ranch Dip by using a cheddar cheese with some personality, like a sharp cheddar. Smoked Gouda, dilled Havarti and crumbled blue cheese are other bold-flavored varieties you can play with as well.
