Hearty Broccoli Dip Recipes

EASY HOT BROCCOLI DIP RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9-inch pie plate. Chop broccoli, so pieces are small (can be done in food processor).
• In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, broccoli, Parmesan cheese, red bell pepper, hot sauce, and 1/2 cup mozzarella. Spread mixture into pie plate.
• Bake for 20 minutes or until heated through. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with remaining mozzarella. Return to the oven to bake for about 5 more minutes or until melted. Serve with crackers.

WARM BROCCOLI DIP

Steps:

• In a microwave-safe bowl, microwave broccoli on high for 1 to 1-1/2 minutes or until tender, stirring once. Drain well. In another microwave-safe bowl, combine the cream cheese, mayonnaise, garlic salt and lemon-pepper until smooth. Add broccoli., In a small saucepan, saute the celery, onion and mushrooms in butter until tender. Stir into cream cheese mixture. Before serving, microwave, uncovered, on high for 20-50 seconds or until warm, stirring once. Serve with crackers.

CREAMY BROCCOLI DIP

Steps:

• Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to boil. Add the broccoli and cook until tender, about 4 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water until cool. Pat dry. Alternatively, you can drain the broccoli and immediately add to the food processor (just chill the dip before serving).
• Transfer the broccoli to a food processor and add the mayonnaise, milk, parsley, chives, lime juice, dill, 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper. Pulse to make a smooth dip. Transfer to a serving bowl. Garnish with chopped dill. Leftover broccoli dip will keep covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. (Makes about 1 1/2 cups of dip.)
• Serve with broccoli florets and ridged potato chips.
