Notes

Serve with tortilla chips, Fritos, pita chips, crostini, or crudites.

For an extra zesty ranch version, use up to 2 packets of ranch seasoning.

Store the dip covered in the fridge for 3-4 days. Reheat the dip in a 350℉ oven until completely heated through. Or, microwave batches of the dip in 30-second bursts, stirring in between each.
