What Is Crack Dip?
Crack Dip is a super easy, ultra-creamy, cheesy dip that's loaded with bacon, cheddar cheese, ranch seasoning, and creamy ingredients like sour cream and cream cheese. I lightened it up with plain Greek yogurt to make it more WW Friendly.
It’s called "crack dip" because it’s so addictive — once people start eating it, they can’t stop! 😄 Great for taking to parties or family gatherings. Kind of like this Cheddar Bacon Ranch Cheese Ball and Slow Cooker Meatballs with Grape Jelly
