Chips and Dip? Something different?

I know this should probably be on the recipe board but I know this board is busier.
I have been chosen to bring in chips and dip for a party next week. I was thinking potato chips and dip and chips and salsa.
I was wondering if anyone had any good "chips and dip" recipes. It would have to be something cold as I don't have a place to heat it up (other than a microwave) and it will be sitting all day.
Thanks!

Try spinich & artichoke dip!!! You could refrigerate it and then heat it up in the microwave!

Re: Chips and Dip? Something different?

cream cheese, chili, and cheddar cheese dip.

spread a 1/4 to a 1/2 inch layer of cream cheese on the bottom of a microwaveable dish. then add a layer of chili (with or without beans, whichever you prefer)...then add a layer of grated cheddar cheese. microwave on high for about 2-3 minutes, depending on your microwave, or until the cheddar cheese is completely melted.

use the dorito scoop chips...(i think that's the name)....mmmmmmm YUMMY!

i've seen where they cut a round opening at the top of the loaf, scoop out the insides, and put the dip actually inside the loaf, using it as the serving dish.

Re: Chips and Dip? Something different?

I make basically the same dip but in mine you add Mayo to all the other stuff listed.

It is sooo good!

Edited to add: I am talking about the spinach dip posted, I thought I quoted it!

Re: Chips and Dip? Something different?

the other good way to serve the spinach dip is in hollowed out peppers. You can set the pepper in the center and have bread and veggies arround it but the bread is also great with this.

Re: Chips and Dip? Something different?

pita chips and hommus!!!

Re: Chips and Dip? Something different?

want an easy one - i learned this from Harry & David i think:

Cream Cheese and a Sweet Salsa mixed together... its really good.

If you cant find sweet salsa (like a raspberry salsa) you can use regular and add some Jam to it.

Re: Chips and Dip? Something different?

This is the easiest:

Take one jar of salsa and a i think it is an 8oz. velveeta (cut into cubes) put all into a bowl and put in the microwave, as you see it melting stir from time to time and when all the cheese is melted it is time to serve. I serve with the frito corn chip scoops.

PS: I think the recipe is on the velveeta box.

Re: Chips and Dip? Something different?

This is always a hit at my house.

A can of hormel chili,
container of sour cream
and put mexican mixed shredded cheese on top
put it in the microwave for 2-3 minutes and serve with Tostitos. =)

Re: Chips and Dip? Something different?

BLT Dip-

cook the bacon until its brown, then drain
combine mayo and sour cream then crumble the bacon into the mixture

This seriously is so delicious

Re: Chips and Dip? Something different?

Cream Cheese & Bacon Wreath

2 pkgs softened cream cheese (8 oz each)

Mix above ingredients together and place on a plate. Form a circle around a small glass or use a shot glass.

Before you remove the glass, sprinkle the wreath with dried parsley. Make a ribbon from roasted red pepper. Remove the glass and place any type of cracker you prefer around wreath.

Re: Chips and Dip? Something different?

I have two very easy one's that are always a HUGE hit at my parties:

Bacon Ranch Dip
1 container sour cream
1 pkg Hidden Valley ranch dressing (the envelope)
1 cup cheddar cheese
about 6 strips of bacon cooked, till crispy or 1/8 cup of bacon bits (I haven't used the bacon bits myself, but others have).

Mix the first 3 ingredients together and then crumble in the cooked bacon. Serve with Fritos Scoops and potatoe chips

Creamy Taco Dip
1 container sour cream (room temp)
3/4 container whipped cream cheese (room temp)
1 pkg taco seasoning (the envelope)

Mix all ingredients together until smooth and serve with tortilla chips.

These both are so good!
