Prepare yourself for a new addiction, RANCH FRIED PICKLES!! These make a great snack, appetizer, or even sandwich topper (Click HERE for my favorite sandwich pairing…you don’t want to miss it!). They’re tangy, crunchy, delicious, and just plain awesome.  These take simple pickles and kick them up a giant notch. They’re great on their own, or dipped in sauces like blue cheese, buffalo sauce, or even more ranch. There is never enough ranch, right?

Enjoy these on Epic Buffalo Chicken Sandwiches (click HERE for the full recipe!) or enjoy them on their own! They’re just as good and addicting that way, trust me!!
