Hola Amigos! Late post today. I had planned a completely different post but as it turns out, errands, traffic and weather got the best of me and I almost went post less today! The saving grace...I ate the last bit of my hubs horseradish dip!!! This is not good when the first thing my poor hubs looks for when he gets home after a hard day at work is a couple of chips, dip and a cold one!...So...manos a la obra, like we say in Spanish or Let's get down to it!
I got to think that these dips would be perfect for super bowl sunday! The last thing I want to do on the weekend is cook and do dishes. With these dips I kill to birds with one stone.
Nothing sophisticated here. I want to keep it simple, easy to prepare and tasty for the football watching crowd. For my first "boat" I made a Classic Vegetable Dip. Use your favorite Ranch Dip/Salad Dressing Mix (1 packet), 4 oz cream cheese, 8 oz sour cream, chopped orange, yellow and red peppers ( like 1/2 cup all together) and add to the mix. Chopped olives and smoked paprika for that earthy flavor. Refrigerate a couple of hours and ready. Garnish with some green onions and more paprika. Serve it it's own pepper boat and pepper slices. Listo!
Next I made and Zesty Italian Dip. Again, use your favorite Italian Salad Dressing Mix. 4 oz cream cheese, 8 oz sour cream, 1/8 tsp. basil and my favorite ingredient fine cubed Prosciutto! Now tell me your guy is not going to love anything with bacon on! Serve with with some Ritz Vegetable crackers and listo.
Last but not least, a South of the Border Dip. You will need 4 oz cream cheese, 1/2 cup of your favorite salsa, 1/2 cup sharp cheddar cheese, 1/2 tsp chilli powder and another favorite of mine, Chorizo. Cook your chorizo thoroughly. Once is done, put it on paper towel to absorb some of the grease and add it to your salsa, cheese mix. Refrigerate, garnish it with some Pimentos and Queso Quesadilla and serve with blue corn tortilla chips in its own pepper boat! This particular one is my teen's favorite!
Not only they are colorful but everybody could be watching the game with their own bowl of dip at hand!..no dishes to do at the end of the game and everybody happy.
I hope you liked my last minute dips, easy to do but full of flavor!
Remember my friends...everything tastes better with a Pinch of Love!
Besitos,
Lizy,
