DIPS!!!!

Okay, so I said I would give you guys some amazing dip recipes a while back and here I am, like 8 million days later finally doing this. We have been sick since Christmas and I just haven't been motivated to do a whole lot, so I apologize. But I'm here now, so don't be sad!!


Oh, and FYI these are all crock pot dips. You can make them in the oven if you prefer, but the way I have the recipes set up is to just dump the food straight into the crock pot and heat it up.

And FYI again, these dips are the brain children of my good friend Angela, so I can't really take credit for any of these but they were SOOOO good that I had to share. I DID assist her in making these dips, so I can take like 1/8 of the credit. If you make it and really like it, just remember to thank me for all of my hard work :) hahahah

THANK YOU ANGELA!!

Let's get this sh*t started shall we?!


#1 - BUFFALO CHICKEN DIP!!

Oooooh.... sounds so yummy doesn't it!?

Ingredients:
3 boneless chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
1 8 oz. cream cheese
1 cup of ranch dressing
1 cup hot sauce (we prefer Frank's Red Hot Sauce)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Dump it all into a crock pot on either HIGH or about 400 until it gets nice and hot. Make sure to stir every so often. When it's all done, set it on a low temp to keep warm.

Soooo.... since I am such a crappy blogger, I took pictures of all the food BEFORE it started cooking and then forgot to take the AFTER pictures And those are the most important ones... I am being a total failure, I really need to get my sh*t together! But I got too hungry and forgot, then started drinking champagne. Ooopsy! So, all of my AFTER photos have been borrowed from www.allrecipes.com which, by the way, is one of my absolute most favorite places to find recipes ever. So... THANK YOU allrecipes.com :)

I would say tortilla chips are the best for dipping in this sauce. You can try whatever the heck you want, but that's what you should use. Because I said so.




#2 - 3-2-1 DIP!

So, the name of the dip differs from person to person. I have heard 3-2-1 and white trash dip, I am sure there are a bazillion other names but we'll go with 3-2-1 here.

Ingredients:
3 - 8 oz. blocks of cream cheese
2 - 10 oz. cans of rotel
1 lb of sausage, cooked

Do you see where the 3-2-1 comes from now? Super easy. So dump all of your ingredients into your crock pot and cook til it gets warm. Doesn't take a genius to figure this out.

AFTER (thanks to allrecipes.com)

Serve with tortilla chips also. Or Frito Scoops. Same difference.



#3 - PIZZA DIP

Disclaimer: This dip is AMAZING. Make sure to make a crap-ton of it. You might be sorry you didn't.

Ingredients:
1 - 14 oz. jar of pizza sauce
2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese
1 - 8 oz. block of cream cheese
2 - 6 oz. packages of diced pepperoni

Now, with this dip you can get as wild as you want. You can add black olives, onions, peppers, bacon, Italian sausage, ham, pineapple.... pretty much ANYTHING your heart desires can go into this dip. We kept it simple with just pepperoni because, well... who doesn't love pepperoni? And it was a hit.

BEFORE

AFTER (allrecipes.com - hence the vegetables in the dip, NOT MINE!!) yuck.

 So, with this dip we bought a dough for thin crust pizza, and just baked it with nothing on top and used it to dip. It was DELISH! Now, you can use garlic bread, Italian bread, bruschetta, pita bread.... it doesn't really matter. Use all of them for all I care.

Now, remember these next time you throw a party or small get together, and if you have one of these....

... you can make all 3 dips at one time! Holy balls, it is amazing. Thanks for coming back and reading this after I have been gone for so long. My bad. I will do my best to not make you wait that long ever again. Hope you all had a fantastic New Years and may this year bring you everything you have ever wanted and more. Peace out!!


Special thanks to Dip Master Angela for helping make all of these dips, couldn't have done it without you!!!
