Cheesy Chicken Enchilada Dip
June has to be one of my favorite summer months. The weather starts warming up, and the neighborhood comes out of hibernation. This is the time of the year when everyone dusts off the patio furniture, fills up the tiki torches and prepares the fire pit.
Because we’re always having last minute summer gatherings, I like to be prepared with a quick and easy appetizer. Appetizers, especially dips are by far my favorite type of food. I could easily make meals out of just appetizers, and I feel like summer affords me the opportunity to do so!

You had me at Hidden Valley Ranch
Right?
Yum. It’s like a South West version of Buffalo chicken dip. Pinned.
This looks so yummy and so easy…can’t wait to try it!
SHUT UP! This is AMAZING! It’s so simple and obvious, deconstructed chicken enchiladas minus tortilla wraps. I love it.
I just tried this recipe out and it was scrumptious!!!….first, I dipped a chip in the dip and it was good, but then crunched some chips into my serving and filled up a corn tortilla. YUM!
Have you made this with your homemade ranch dry mix?
Yes Rebecca! I just did last week. Super yummy!
