Warm spinach with water chesnuts dip has to be one of my fav's. Then there
is a Ranch/bacon/cheddar dip. Hot broccoli dip, oh yum! Artichoke dip... I
could go on. But I'd rather *you* go on! What's your favorite dip? for
chips and crackers.

For me, it's a toss between the Knorr spinach dip recipe (the cold one with
the water chestnuts, etc), and an artichoke/parmesan thing that is to die
for.
Not for the calorie conscious, that's for sure!!!

Funny you should ask. This is our all-time favorite, but I can't decide what
to do about the green onions when I make this for Thanksgiving!
What are we using instead these days? Shallots?

SPRING DIP

1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon superfine sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon white pepper
1/4 cup minced green onions
1/4 cup minced radishes
1/4 cup minced cucumber
1/4 cup minced green pepper
1 clover minced garlic.

Vegetables must be done by hand; not by processor! Blend all ingredients
together and serve with chips or crackers, or vegetable sticks.

Now this is a problem: How can there be a favorite when thee are so many?

Fire Roasted Green Chili con queso.
Dried chili con queso
Béchamel based spinach and artichoke
Do spreads count?
Green olive tapanade.
Mixed olive tapanade.
Cheddar and port spread
Cream cheese and lox spread
Minced Caper and butter.
I still like onion soup and sour cream.
Fire roasted salsa.
Fresh salsa
Minced Pico de Gallo as a dip.
Mince Gravlax and mix with capers and red onion.

I'm getting hungry - can you tell?

I like a mild spreadable cheese type dip for crackers and nothing for
potatao chips. For nacho chips, I prefer a mild red salsa.

For potato chips, you can't beat sour cream and onion dip. For tortilla or
pita or other full bodied chips, I like hot artichoke spinach dip as
mentioned earlier in this thread. For crackers, I like the dip/spread below.
I make this a lot, as it's simple and delicious and a hit at parties.

Habit Forming Jalapeno Dip

1 pint real mayonnaise
4 oz sliced jalapenos, chopped
1/2 bunch green onions, chopped (use mostly white part)
1 lb coarsely shredded cheddar cheese

Mix mayonnaise, jalapenos and onions until well blended. Mixture should be a
little chunky. Refrigerate for several hours or overnight. Pour mixture into
separate bowl with grated cheese and mix well. Serve with chips, crackers or
veggies. This would make a great stuffing for celery sticks, also, if you
like celery.

Mmmm...

For spreading on crackers, I've done one similar to this.
No mayo or black pepper, add some chopped red onions,
and cover with a layer of capers.

I'll have to try the mayo for chip-dipping.

My favorite has both spinach and artichoke. Basically, saute diced
artichoke bottoms, garlic, salt, pepper in olive oil. Then add spinach and
continue cooking until the spinach is done. Then remove from the heat and
add some mayo and sour cream. Voila. It's good served warm or chilled as
you prefer.

My favorite dip is more of a cheese spread. My mom made it, and every time I
make it, people beg for more. And it's really simple.

Cream Cheese Spread

1 boxes of cream cheese, softened
2 pkgs (5 oz?) of deli thin sliced beef
1 small can of chopped black olives
1 bunch (about 5-6) green onions
2 tbs of worcestershire sauce

chop up the beef and the green onions (including stems!) very fine. Combine
with the rest of the ingredients and refrigerate. Can form into a ball, or
leave as is. Serve with club crackers. This is best if you let it refrigerate
over night before serving.

My favorite dip is as follows:

1 cup mayonnaise (real mayo, NOT salad dressing/miracle whip)
1 cup sour cream
1/2 c. parmesan cheese (fine grated - be cheap, and get the not good
stuff, seriously)
3 cloves garlic, crushed

Mix, and let sit overnight in fridge, covered tightly. This is a great,
thick dip, wonderful with crudites.

Nancy, would you say that one could use "Hellman"s mayonnaise?
I have a cup of non-fat sour cream that I'd like to do something with
soonest.
I don't know when you say, "real mayo," whether you mean one that you've
made yourself, or if Hellman's is "real mayo."

Thanks,
Dee

I'm sure she just means "real" mayo versus what she listed to NOT use. Salad
dressings and Miracle Whip are *not* mayonnaise hence she listed them as
examples of what not to use. Hellman's is real mayonnaise. Enjoy

Add some powdered hidden valley ranch dressing mix to it. ;-)
Most fat free ranch in bottles just suck! They are too sweet, at least
to me!

I like to make my own with just that combo. Fat free sour cream and the
packaged, powdered hidden valley ranch dressing packets.

Yum!!!

And my family eats it up with crudit trays.

Hellman's would be fine - I would also use homemade, but frankly,
anything that isn't salad dressing (e.g., sweet - like Miracle Whip)
would be good.

We're more into vegetables than chips and crackers these days, but the
concept is the same. Hidden Valley Ranch is a favorite. I also like
hummus, and blue cheese. To make that I crumble 4oz of good cheese into
half a cup each of sour cream and mayo, add some finely chopped onion,
parsley, a teaspoon of garlic powder, a teaspoon of cider vinegar, and
the juice from half a lemon. I could sit and eat that by the spoonful.

Hellman's & Best Food Mayo are the same....different labels...depends on
which side of the Rockies you're on....Try Penzey's Horseradish dip
mix....mix powder with a bit of water, then mayo & sour cream....let it sit
a bit....tasty but not overpowering.

Default Your favorite dip?

Hate to admit it, but my favorite dip is still the sour cream-Lipton onion soup
mix, but mixed about 3/4 strength or even a little less (otherwise it's too
salty for potato chips-- preferably Ruffles).

Supermarket chill case dip is generally too disgusting to dip straight out of
the tub, but a spoonful or two mixed into plain sour cream works pretty well
for chip dip.

When Campbell's still made frozen soups, I used to make a shrimp dip using
their frozen Cream of Shrimp Soup. The dip used both cream cheese and sour
cream, and some unremembered seasonings/flavorings. The dip was delicious,
but attempts using their canned variety fails miserably on flavor. I've
also tried making a shrimp dip from scratch, but the original recipe using
the frozen soup was much better.
