Great appetizer on crackers! Whenever I go to a party, I get requested to make this. I never come home with leftovers! I like to use Lawry's Tabasco Seasoned Salt, it's hot, but good!
This is the quickest and easiest appetizer I know of. It takes only minutes to make and can be served almost immediately. You can keep the ingredients on hand for months. Serve with buttery crackers.
Some ladies I know use to make a pimento cheese spread and sell it at the Augusta National Golf Course during Masters week. The only thing I knew about their recipe was that they used bell peppers instead...

Fresh peaches with creamy avocado, bell pepper, onions, and jalapeno make a great summertime salsa. Use as a topper for grilled fish or chicken, or just dip tortilla chips in it. Not a fan of avocados?...
If this dish asks you, 'What am I, chopped liver?!' you can say, 'Yes!'. I'm particular about using Hungarian paprika, faithful to my roots! You can use a food processor to 'mash' the livers, but the result...
Goat cheese and beets not only make a great side or salad, they also make a tasty dip! Serve with crostini, pita chips or crackers. Beets will stain, so wear gloves if desired.
I look forward to this simple, traditional cheese ball every year. It has been served during family Christmas Eve parties since before my time. The ingredients are few and inexpensive, and might be made...
This tasty and easy dip is ready in just a few minutes and is very reminiscent of the Mexican street corn sold by cart vendors. Great served with Fritos® or corn chips.

This is a cheese ball cleverly disguised as a skinned human face. So gross and yet SOOOooo good! Arrange crackers, pretzels, or any snacks you want around the face and serve with a knife!
Spicy sauce used for dipping lumpia or egg rolls, or for dipping and drizzling over almost everything if you are a Pacific Islander. This sauce gets stronger the longer you keep it.
This is a green salsa I learned while in Mexico. It is a green salsa with avocado and it is delicious! I always make it when we do carne asada. I am always begged for the recipe. Enjoy!
I created this recipe by taking my favorite feature from every spinach and/or artichoke dip I've tried. Everyone seems to love it. Serve with nacho chips, crackers, rye bread, pita, you name it!
A delicious party dip with beans, tomatoes, onions, and lots of diced avocado. A variation on 'Texas Caviar'; one bite and you won't leave the bowl. Serve with 'scoop' tortilla chips.
My sister-in-law made this for a holiday, and it was a quick solution for me to use at a party the following night. It is a quick and easy appetizer, and different than the rest of the dips we are used...
