Please post your favorite party dip recipes!

I am going to a family birthday party for my grandfather who turns 90 in two weeks. I am in charge of bringing a bunch of different dips and whatever will be dipped in them.

Can you please post your favorite party dip recipes and also what you use to dip?

Thanks in advance!

I love guacamole and chips.

Or

BLT Dip with chips or toast.

Or

Spinach Dip served in a bread bowl.

Or

Hummus with pita chips or veggies.

One stick of cream cheese on a platter, pour mild salsa over it and sprinkle a very generous amount of shredded cheddar cheese. Serve with tortillas. YUM!

The Lipton onion soup mix with sour cream dip is good & very easy

Re: Please post your favorite party dip recipes!

1 cup mayo
1 cup plain yogurt
4 tbls dill
2 tbls lemon juice

(Sounds really really weird, but we have it with chicken. Cold chunked chicken, dipped in, is sooooo good.)

I love this taco dip

Spread 1 package of cream cheese on a platter, top with 1 jar drained salsa, top with chopped iceberg lettuce, top with chopped tomatoes, chopped red onion and black olives, then top with shredded cheddar cheese. Place a few blobs of sour cream on top and serve with chips.

Baked Clam Dip
1 green pepper chopped
1 onion chopped
2 cans minced clams
3/4 stick of butter
1 cup breadcrumbs
1 lemon
1 tbsp oregano
a few dashes of tabasco
Shredded Cheddar

In a large skillet add clams and their juice with the juice of the lemon. Simmer for 5 minutes then add oregano, chopped pepper and onion. Simmer until veggies are soft. Remove from heat and add butter and breadcrumbs and a few dashes of tabasco. Place mixture in a pie dish, top with cheddar. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes and serve with crackers.

I make this hot Spinach and Artichoke dip and just throw in some extra cheese and some mozzerella cheese on top of what the recipe calls for to thicken it up a little. YUM!

I serve it with toasted pita wedges and in my MINI crock pot!!
___________________________
1 10 ounce box of frozen spinach
2 TBSPS of Extra virgin olive oil
1 TBSP of butter
3 chopped garlic cloves
1 small onion, peeled and halved
2 TBSP of flour
1 cup of chicken stock
1 cup of heavy cream (I USED LIGHT CREAM INSTEAD)
1/8 TSPN of Nutmeg (you can probably skip this is you don't have it)
1 14-ounce can of artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
2 handfuls of parmigiano-reggiano
Salt and pepper to taste
1 pound cheese tortellini (I used Barilla spinach/cheese tortellini)

Bring a large pot of water to a boil to cook the pasta. Microwave the spinach on high for 6 minutes to defrost.

Heat a deep skillet over med. heat with the EVOO and butter. When the butter melts and is hot, add the garlic. Using a box grater, grate the onion directly into the skillet. Saute the onions and garlic for 5 minutes. Sprinkle the flour into the skillet and cook for 1 minute. Whisk in the stock, then the cream, and bring the sauce to a bubble. Season the sauce with nutmeg and reduce the heat to low.

Place the defrosted spinach in a clean kitchen towel and wring it dry. Seperate it as you add it to the sauce. Stir in the chopped artichokes and a couple handfuls of cheese, then season the spinach-artichoke sauce with salt and pepper.

Salt the boiling water and cook the tortellini according to package directions, about 3 to 5 minutes. Drain it well and toss w/ the spinach-artichoke sauce. Serve immediately
