Ingredients
For the Creamy Ranch Layer:
- Sour cream – 1 cup
- Softened cream cheese – 8 oz
- Ranch seasoning mix – 1 (1 oz) packet
For the Salad Layers:
- Cooked chicken breast, finely diced – 1 cup
- Chopped romaine lettuce – 1 cup
- Roma tomatoes, diced – 3
- Hard-boiled eggs, chopped – 3
- Green onions, thinly sliced – 3
- Grilled corn kernels – 1 cup
- Thick-cut bacon, cooked and chopped – 6 slices
- Crumbled blue cheese – ¾ cup
Instructions
1. Cook the Bacon:
In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the chopped bacon until crispy and golden brown. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease. Set aside to cool.
2. Prepare the Ranch Layer:
In a mixing bowl, blend together the sour cream, softened cream cheese, and ranch seasoning mix until smooth and creamy. This will serve as your base layer.
3. Assemble the Dip:
Using a clear glass serving dish—such as a trifle bowl or wide, shallow bowl—spread the ranch mixture evenly along the bottom. Then carefully layer the remaining ingredients in the following order to create a beautiful presentation:
- Diced chicken breast
- Chopped romaine
- Roma tomatoes
- Hard-boiled eggs
- Sliced green onions
- Grilled corn
- Crispy bacon
- Blue cheese crumbles
4. Chill Before Serving:
Cover the assembled dip with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours. This resting time allows the flavors to come together and makes the dip easier to serve.
5. Serve and Enjoy:
Serve the Cobb Salad Dip cold with hearty dippers like pita chips, crackers, or crunchy vegetable sticks. It’s the perfect appetizer for parties, potlucks, or game days.
