My favorite dip recipes include Roasted Garlic Dip

1 bulb garlic, roasted w/ salt, pepper, & olive oil
1 tub whipped cream cheese
1 tsp. Italian seasoning
Enough olive oil to make it dip-like consistency

and Confetti Cheese Dip

2 parts mayonnaise
1 part sour cream
Parmesan cheese
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
2 T. chopped fresh parsley
2 T. chopped cucumber
2 T. chopped bell pepper (red looks nice with the green)

I also like roasted vegetable salsas, especially salsa verde with tomatillas and cilantro....mmmmmm :-p
 
Cannellini bean pate´is one of my favorites.

beans
lemon juice
fresh chopped parsley
ground cumin
red wine vinegar
olive oil

Great for dipping raw veggies.
 
Went to a friend's house for dinner last night, and she had made a dip from chopped serrano peppers and whipped cream cheese. That's all - it was delicious and we ate every bit. For dippers, she had tortilla chips and jicama. You could also use jalapenos if you can't get serranos..
 
BLT Dip

1 cup mayo
1 cup sour cream
1 lb. crisp cooked crumbled bacon
1 medium tomato

Where the L is the "L", middie?

I wonder if a fine chiffonade of green leaf lettuce would be good. I'm liking this idea a lot!

With cocktail rye toast points for dippers!!!

You could but I don't know anybody else who puts the L in there lol
 
Sour cream
chopped purple onions
pepper
lemon juice

I'm not sure if this dip has a name but it tastes great with raw veggies
 
2-3 seeded dried chiles (ancho or guajillo) soaked in hot water for about a half-hour, then drained
1 bulb roasted garlic
a few tablespoons of sun dried tomatoes, chopped
1 8-oz block of cream cheese
1/2 cup sour cream
a few tablespoons of fresh cilantro, chopped fine

Put it all in the food processor, serve with tortilla chips
 
Its all in the GUAC

BEST BUD's GUACAMOLE

- Two avocados
- a quarter of a red onion chopped fine
- a tomato chopped until its basically mush
- one Serrano pepper chopped super super fine
- a handful of fresh cilantro chopped super fine
- one lime's worth of squeezed lime juice

I like chopping everything up superfine because the tastes seem to gel together more, and it gives the guac a more uniform texture.



Question: My wife tells me that if you leave the "bulbs" of the avocados in, that it slows the guacamole in turning brown. True? False?

False!
Leaving the seed in the avocado dip will not stop it from turning brown..The only way I do that is to keep all air out of the mixed dip..Cover with a plastic wrap.

Fruit Dip:
8oz package softened cream cheese
1 c brown sugar
1/2 c powdered sugar

Dill dip:
sour cream, dill, celery salt, MSG is optional...I think I'm forgetting something, I'll post if I remember.
 
Mine is for fruits mostly.In a bowl, put one package softened cream cheese, and 2 cups Marshmellow Creme, stir until creamy.
 
I love this dip because not only does it taste good, but it consists of ingredients that I typically have in the cupboard or refrigerator. Sometimes, I also add a jalapeno pepper, finely diced to the recipe.

Mexican Black Bean Dip

1-15.5 oz. can black beans
1/3 cup salsa
¼ cup cilantro leaves
4 teaspoons lemon or lime juice
1 garlic clove, minced
Tortilla chips

Drain and rinse black beans. Combine beans, cilantro, lemon juice, and garlic in food processor. Blend until smooth. Garnish with leaflets of cilantro. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve. Serve with tortilla chips.
 
My family loves this one...

1 carton sour cream mixed with taco seasoning powder (taco dip)
1 good guacamole dip bought from the supermarket

Place the taco dip on a plate and cover with the guacamole dip
Cover the dips with cubed tomatoes
Then cover everything with chopped green stalks from shallots

Great with doritos or plain corn chips or sakata rice crackers.
 
I've never made dip only bought it. Thanks for all your advice, I might try these tonight! There's a website gourmates.com which I've heard has amazing recipes from top chefs. I'm gonna try that too ;)
