Notes

  • This recipe was tested in a 6-quart Instant Pot.
  • If you want to make a smaller batch of this dip, I recommend that you use the pot in pot method to avoid getting a BURN message. To do this, use a heat-proof serving dish and place all of the ingredients in it. Insert the trivet in the stainless steel insert and add 1 cup of water. Place the dish with the ingredients on the trivet, and pressure cook. Use kitchen mitts to take the dish out of the pot once it’s done cooking.
  • I added ranch seasoning to my dip for extra flavor, it's optional but strongly recommended.
  • Nutrition values are calculated per portion assuming that this dip makes 12 portions. Excluding the blue cheese crumbles.
