I love Sundays in the fall. Not because I love football so much, but because we usually spend the afternoon at home watching football and munching on something wonderful. We love chips and dips and although neither one of the recipes below are particularly healthy, they sure are good. My favorite new drink (non alcoholic) to have with the chips and dips is a mix of 1/2 pomegrante juice or cranberry juice, 1/2 club soda. Add a lemon or lime, some ice, and you have the most refreshing drink ever. So here's some dips to go with that drink.
Bacon Scallion Cream Cheese Dip
8 ouces cream cheese, softened (use low fat if desired)
4 ounces cooked bacon, chopped
1/4 cup scallions finely chopped
1 tstp. Worcestershire sauce
Combine all ingredients in a small bowl. Chill until ready to use. Store refrigerated for up to two days. It's better if the ingredients have a few hours to meld before serving.
Old Fashioned Onion Dip
Do you remember the old fashioned onion dip from the 60's and 70's? I rediscovered it a few weeks ago when Regina brought it to our cocktail party at Warner Springs. It was a big hit, so I offer it to you here. It's something you probably haven't had in years, and it's just as good today as it was 50 years ago. Lighten it up by using low fat sour cream if you want.
1 package dry onion soup mix
1 pint cream cheese
Combine ingredients, let the flavors meld for a few hours, and serve. I think it's best with potato chips, but any dipping cracker will be delicious.
