Feta Dip
Found this recipe off of memoriesatcloverlane.com, a cute food blog a while back, and have made it s few times. Slice up a fresh baguette for dipping...you will LOVE it!
Here’s what you need:
olive oil
1 block (1#) of feta cheese (I don’t like the pre-crumbled kind because I think it is dry)
tomatoes (any kind)…I use about 3 Roma’s
1 bunch of green onions
1 baguette
Greek Seasoning (see pic below)
1 large platter
Cover the bottom of a platter in olive oil. Dice the tomatoes and green onion. Throw on top. Crumble the feta cheese over the top. Sprinkle Greek seasoning over top. (use about 3 tsp.) (If you can't find the seasoning, you can sub with oregano and a little pepper and some salt to taste.)
Gently mix together, and start dipping!
Reuben Dip
This dip is made in a crockpot, and also served with a sliced baguette. It is warm, gooey, easy to make, and can be served all day from the crock pot. It almost tastes like hot, crab artichoke dip, without the cost. A woman brought it to a neighbors party, and at least a handful of people were sitting around the kitchen writing down the recipe. It's that good.
you will need:
1 (16 ounce) jar sauerkraut, drained
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
2 cups shredded Swiss cheese
2 cups shredded cooked corned beef
1/4 cup thousand island dressing
7 Layer Taco Dip
My mom has been making this since I was little. I don't know what it is about hers, that makes it so good, but I could (and do) eat it all day.
Layer the following in a casserole dish starting with:
1 can Frito Lay Jalapeno Bean dip (find in the chip aisle)
Next, spread over 3 mashed avocados seasoned with lemon juice, salt and pepper
mix1 cup sour cream, 1/2 cup mayo, and 3/4 packet of taco seasoning and spread over dip
sprinkle on 2 diced tomatoes
sprinkle on 1 can sliced olives
sprinkle on 1 bunch of chopped green onions
top with shredded cheddar and heat in oven until melty.
The best tortilla chips I have tasted, are the Juanita's brand, in a red and green bag.
For something sweet, my cousin makes an awesome popcorn/chex mix that the kids chow down on:
Caramel Popcorn Chex Mix
8 cups popcorn
4 cups rice chex cereal
2 cups pretzels
1 or 2 cups pecans
Mix in a bowl, then put on baking sheet.
in a sauce pan: bring to a boil, 1 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup light corn syrup, and 1/2 cup butter. turn down to medium-low, and cook for 5 minutes (do not stir.) Take off of heat, and stir in 1 tsp vanilla, and 1/4 tsp baking soda. Pour mixture over popcorn mix. Bake at 295 degrees for 30 minutes. Stir halfway through. Enjoy!
Hope you all have the best Superbowl ever! (as I go to eat just one more pretzel...but alas...there are two stuck together like Siamese pretzels. Of course they are meant to be together, I guess I have to eat them both...) Enjoy your snacking, napping, funny commercials, and of course....football!
