Silky Whipped Feta Dip
This Silky Whipped Feta Dip with honey makes the most creamy and delicious appetizer. Made with feta, and cream cheese, Greek yogurt, olive oil, garlic, and lemon, this make ahead recipe is perfect for entertaining. This lemony dip is so versatile, you can enjoy it on its own, or for a salty sweet combination drizzle it with sweet honey or hot honey for some added spiciness. Its smooth texture and delicious taste pairs well with a variety of breads, chips, or veggies.
Easy Spinach Artichoke Dip
Dive into this rich and cheesy Easy Spinach Artichoke Dip! This easy crockpot recipe is made with spinach, tender artichoke hearts, rich cream cheese, tangy Greek yogurt, mozzarella, Parmesan cheese, and a blend of aromatic herbs and spices. Perfect for game night, Super Bowl Sunday, and parties, this thick and delicious dip is a crowd pleaser, making it a great choice for almost any social gathering. Instead of using mayonnaise, this slightly healthier version of spinach artichoke dip gets its added protein from Greek yogurt and is amazingly decadent.
Quick & Easy Guacamole
My Quick & Easy Guacamole is so full of authentic Mexican flavor! This versatile guacamole recipe can easily be made very mild or extra spicy. Made with avocados, spicy pico de gallo, a touch of seasoning, and fresh lime juice, this 4 ingredient recipe is just as delicious as traditional guacamole. The beauty of this appetizer recipe is that it comes together in minutes, and there is virtually no chopping. It has such an amazing taste, that no one will know you didn’t make it the traditional way!
Healthier Lemon Mint Aioli
Our Healthier Lemon Mint Aioli has all the flavor but only half the fat of traditional aioli recipes. Made with fresh mint, lemon zest and juice, garlic, Greek yogurt, and yes…mayonnaise, this delicious spread will enhance any sandwich. With its Mediterranean flavor profile, it’s the perfect condiment for our Turkey Feta Burger. And, it’s terrific on beef burgers and grilled chicken sandwiches, too!
White Bean Roasted Garlic Dip
A delicious alternative to hummus, this quick and easy White Bean Roasted Garlic Dip is healthy & so flavorful. We roasted garlic to mellow out its sharpness, used buttery cannellini beans, fresh herbs, added fresh lemon juice and zest to brighten up the flavor, and a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes to give it a little kick. Served with homemade crostini, our white bean dip can be made ahead of time and makes the perfect appetizer for any gathering.
Mild Three Chile Salsa
This quick, smoky salsa can easily be made extra mild or super spicy, and is delicious as a dip or a topping on tacos, tamales, enchiladas, and more. Crank up the heat and use it as a hot sauce for anything that needs some extra flavor! Our 3 step recipe is really tasty and so ridiculously quick and easy, that you will likely never want to buy salsa again!
