Bacon Ranch Corn Dip

This bacon ranch corn dip is out of this world and so addicting! Just wait until you bring it to the next BBQ or party and everyone’s begging for the recipe!

A long time ago, years in fact, I had a really delicious corn dip at a bbq and it became quite embarrassing how much of it I ate. I couldn’t stop. Every bite only made me want more and more and all I could think was, I HAVE to have the recipe. Well, not everyone is into sharing their recipes, in fact some flat out refuse. It was a sad moment. And I totally forgot about it until now. Because bacon ranch corn dip is totally happening and it’s full of cheesy deliciousness.

Can You Freeze Bacon Ranch Corn Dip?

The possibility of Freezing Dips would depend on the ingredients use to make the dips.

Most dips which have dairy products like cheese, yogurt, cream or mayonnaise, would be a bit difficult to preserve or store in the freezer.

A frozen cheese or cream dip would either be crumbly or watery when it is thawed.

So let’s break it down, first this involves ranch, bacon, and corn. In other words it’s three safe foods for picky eaters. Is it just me or have you all noticed that even kids and adults who refuse to eat anything seem to be ok with these three foods?

Bacon is obvious, corn is so sweet and good, and even better if you grill it, but that’s not necessary (you can totally use frozen if you’d like) and ranch, well I don’t know why ranch is a picky eater pleaser but it does work!

Actually, I was one of those picky kids and ranch is what finally sold me on salad. It took years and years but once I tried a piece of lettuce with a crouton and dipped in ranch I was forever in love. And homemade is best in case you were wondering. Now, take those three ingredients and add peppers, cheese and s&p and you’re golden! Dip away my friends! You’ll be the new star of every bbq!!

How Long Will Bacon Ranch Corn Dip Last in the Fridge?

Print Recipe

Ingredients:

• 3 Cups Sweet Corn, frozen (or grilled and cut off the cob)
• 1/2 Cup Ranch (we prefer to make our own from the packet or from scratch)
• 1/2 Cup Sour Cream or Ranch for extra ranch flavor
• 1/2 Cup Pepperjack Cheese, shredded
• 1/2 Cup Mild Cheddar Cheese
• 1 Cup Bell Peppers of any color (I use red and orange), chopped
• 1 small can diced green chiles, drained
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Green Onions for Garnish
• 4 Slices Bacon, cooked and chopped

Directions:

1. Heat a large saute pan to medium heat and add a small drizzle of olive oil. Add the peppers and saute until tender. Remove from heat to cool.
2. In a large bowl, mix the corn, ranch, sour cream, cheeses, peppers, chiles until evenly mixed. Add salt and pepper to taste (it will take a few pinches of salt with all of that corn and the dressing). Top with green onions and bacon.
