Ingredients
Scale

- 1 packet ranch seasoning mix (dry mix only)
- 15 ounce canned corn, drained
- 1 small can black olives, diced
- 1 cup red bell pepper, finely diced
- 4 ounces green chiles, drained (optional)
- 1 whole jalapeno, finely diced (optional)
Instructions
- Soften the cream cheese by leaving it at room temperature or microwaving it in short intervals until soft.
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine the cream cheese with the dry ranch seasoning mix. Mix until smooth.
- Dice the red bell pepper, black olives, and any other optional veggies like jalapenos and green chiles.
- Drain the canned corn and add it along with the diced veggies into the cream cheese mixture.
- Stir everything together until fully mixed and combined.
- Refrigerate the dip for at least 30 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld together.
Notes
- If the cream cheese is too thick, you can add a little Greek yogurt or sour cream to adjust the texture.
- Make sure to finely dice the veggies to make it easier to scoop with chips or crackers.
- This dip can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge for up to 3–4 days.
- For a spicier version, leave the seeds in the jalapeno or use a hotter variety of chiles.
