Grillo's Viral Pcikle Dip
This dip combines the crunchy sourness of Grillo's pickles with a rich, creamy tanginess and just a hint of heat.
Ingredients
- 1 jar Grillo's pickles 32 oz (hot or original)
- 1 cup cream cheese softened
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup Greek yogurt plain
- 1 packet ranch seasoning mix
- 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese shredded

- Chop the pickles into small, quarter-inch cubes to ensure manageable dipping.
Chop the Veggies:

- Gradually add the ranch seasoning mix and a tablespoon of the reserved pickle brine. Mix until well combined and smooth.
Combine the Mixture:
