Cheesy Ritz Dip

Monday, April 4th, 2011

Does this photo entice you to look further? Yummy, cheesy goodness at it’s best is lying just ahead for you! I’ve seen this dip in every single community cookbook I’ve ever purchased, and with good reason…it’s absolutely delicious and one of the easiest things to make! I first tried a similar version of this dip […]

Pimento & Cheese

Wednesday, March 23rd, 2011

Not many things are as Southern as Pimento & Cheese. I know around here every family has their own variation of the classic spread. Our family’s version is from none other than my Mae Mae! I know you’ve all heard alot about her, but you just might as well get used to it because a […]

Mexican Pinwheels

Monday, March 21st, 2011

I originally saw these little babies posted on a friend’s Facebook page, and I just knew right away that I had to try them! Thank goodness she was kind enough to share the recipe with me, and allow me to share it with all of you. This recipe comes from a sweet girl named Brandi […]

Corn & Green Olive Dip

Friday, March 11th, 2011

Let me just admit this and get it over with. I’m a green olive addict. If there were a Olive Overeaters Anonymous program somewhere, I’d need to be the first person in line to sign up. I love it so much that I can eat them just straight out of the jar…and I love them […]

Restaurant Style Salsa

Wednesday, February 23rd, 2011

My husband is EXTREMELY picky when it comes to his salsa. At every Mexican restaurant we go to, he has some complaint about their salsa. It’s either too chunky, has too many onions, isn’t salty enough, etc. Well for Christmas last year I bought myself a food processor. Hard to believe that as much as […]

Layered Tex-Mex Dip

Saturday, February 5th, 2011

This recipe is yet another that is somewhat of a mixture of several recipes that I liked, but I kicked them up another level by adding my own twists. This is probably one of my absolutely FAVORITE dips of all time. No traditional Mexican layered dip comes close to the flavor that you get out […]

Jalapeno Popper Dip

Tuesday, February 1st, 2011

We all know the big game is coming up this weekend, so I thought another dip recipe would be most appropriate for today’s post. Recipes for Jalapeno Popper Dip are floating all over the internet right now, but I have never found a recipe that suits my taste just right. So I put together all of […]

Corn & Black Bean Salsa (or Salad)

Thursday, January 27th, 2011

Ohmygosh! This is one of my all-time favorite things to take to a gathering of friends. Everyone devours this dip, and I always leave with an empty bowl. The freshness of this salad is unbelievable, and on top of all that, it’s healthy too! This would be the perfect thing to take to a Super […]

Loaded Potato Dip

Wednesday, January 26th, 2011

This dip is one of the easiest, most delicious dips I’ve had in a long time. It’s as simple as mixing together two things, spreading it in a dish, and sprinkling things over the top. As Ina would say, “How easy is that?” I first tasted this dip at our family reunion back in May, […]

Southwestern Chicken Appetizers

Tuesday, October 26th, 2010

This appetizer is one of my ALL-TIME favorite foods on this earth. I first tasted this recipe at a Pampered Chef party. My cousin, who is a rep for them, was doing a party here at my house and wanted to know what type of food I wanted to make. I told her that I’d […]
