Mississippi Pot Roast Dip is a 10-minute appetizer that has all the flavors of the classic pot roast without the beef or extra calories. Just like the roast recipe, it's loaded with au jus, ranch seasoning and pepperoncinis, but it's a no-bake dip with a zesty kick!

In a medium size mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese with a hand mixer until soft and creamy. Add pepperoncini juice from the jar and blend with the cream cheese until no lumps remain.
Add sour cream, au jus seasoning and ranch seasoning mix to cream cheese in bowl. Blend slowly with mixer until smooth.
Stir in half of the drained pepperoncini peppers and mix well.
Chill until ready to serve. Place in a dish and sprinkle the rest of the chopped pepperoncini peppers on top. Serve with ridged potato chips, veggies, or pretzel crisps.
Optionally, you can crush french fried onions and sprinkle them around the pepperoncinis on top for a nice presentation.
Notes
Drain the juice from the pepperoncini jar before beginning the recipe. Squeeze the pepperoncinis in a paper towel to remove all moisture.
Be sure to whip the cream cheese first to get all of the lumps out of the mixture before adding other ingredients.
Whipping pepperoncini juice with the cream cheese makes it extra smooth.
If you want to cut the salt in half, purchase low sodium ranch and au ju seasoning packets online or at the grocery store.
