Taste Tested Tuesday: Dive Into Dips!
Posted by AndreaOn New Year’s Eve, JT and I will spend a cozy, quiet evening at home. Since we’ll be at home, I’ve planned a fun evening menu featuring a variety of fingerfoods, sandwiches, and dips.
BLT Dip and Buffalo Chicken Dip are easy to prepare and taste fantastic! (Plus both recipes feature cream cheese, one of my favorite spreads!) These dips will be perfect for our low key evening at home but would also be excellent additions to a Superbowl Party menu.
BLT Dip:
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup mayonnaise
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1/4 cup sliced green onions
1 tomato, seeded and diced
6 slices bacon – cooked, drained, and chopped
salt and pepper to taste
Combine all ingredients in a bowl until well mixed. Chill for two hours before serving.
Buffalo Chicken Dip:
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 cup bleu cheese dressing
3/4 cup hot sauce
1 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
3 boneless skinless chicken breasts, grilled and cut into bite sized pieces or shredded
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, bleu cheese dressing, hot sauce, and half of the Cheddar Cheese. Stir until well combined. Add the chicken and stir. Spread mixture in an 8×8 pan and top with the remaining Cheddar Cheese. Bake for 20 minutes.
