A delicious dip is designed to be shared and truly brings people together. By combining the right flavors, textures and atmosphere you can create the ideal snack or appetizer for any occasion.
Final Summer Bash
Before the days get too short and the weather gets too cold, host one last backyard barbecue. Create dishes that encompass your favorite summer flavors, like Sunshine Salsa or Corn and Jalapeno Dip. Arrange the dip with potato chips in a fun and colorful dish. You can even make your own chip and dip server, as illustrated in this easy and creative DIY project!
Afterschool Snack
After school lets out, tempt your young ones with a sweet snack that sneaks in the nutrition. Serve apple slices or graham crackers alongside this Healthy Cookie Dough Dip. The secret ingredient is garbanzo beans, which will help keep your kids full until dinner is served! If your kids are eating their after-school-snack on the way to their basketball, ballet or bassoon lessons pack everything ahead of time in a handy reusable container.
Evening with Adults
You’ll want to remember this final dip for all your grown-up occasions. Serve Smoky Carrot Hummus the next time your book club meets or your in-laws come over for dinner. This dip pairs perfectly with whole-grain crackers or slices of French bread. The beautiful bright color of this salsa will really pop when served in a clean white dish.
