This is a recipe for Dill Pickle Dip. Made creamy with Cream Cheese and Sour Cream and the star of the show, chopped dill pickles. A delicious and easy appetizer recipe for any party or game-day event.
This is one of those recipes that I just had to try… just out of sheer curiosity.
I’d never heard of such a thing. Dill pickle dip? Odd but interesting. Quirky and tempting. Crunchy yet creamy. Tart and salty. I found this recipe over at CopyKat Recipes. Thanks so much Stephanie, this is a great dip. While taste testing to adjust flavors, I decided it needed more pickle, more pickle juice and a bit more onion. For no other reason other than I’m a pickle and onion freak-0.
I made this dip the morning we were heading over to Maralee and Greg’s for the big AFC Championship game that afternoon…let me pause here for a Go Broncos!…and it was delicious the same day. And just as the direction say, it’s better if it sits overnight.
I found a similar recipe over at the blog Smells Like Home, using Greek yogurt.
The Iowa Beef Council Industry thinks we ought to add dried beef to the recipe and serve it with vegetables. Sounds good to me.

- 1 teaspoon dried onion flakes
- 4 Tablespoons chopped dill pickles

Add in chopped white onion, chopped dill pickles, and Worcestershire sauce, and mix until you have a uniform mixture.

Thanks so much Rebecca. And as always, thanks for stopping by and the comment.
Well I never, but I think I will… I like your version, and I might just add a little heat like Sarah’s…
Thanks Drick. And speaking of pickles….. I’m still making your version and I bet they’d be delicious in this dip.
Heh – when I was a kid, I used to sneak pickle and olive juice both. This does look very interesting and I think the idea with dried beef sounds even better – going on my list of things to try for sure!
I’m also interested in trying this with the beef. Thanks so much for stopping by Donalyn. Love new visitors. Heading over to your site to take a look.
