Does anyone love a good dip as much me??? In the spirit of fall, which I think is the best time to make a dip, share your favorite dip!( Nervous: this is my first poll, I hope it's okay to do this)

This dip is my new obsession, not so great for the wedding diet, but the best thing ever. Hot Corn Dip 1-2 tablespoons butter 2 cups fresh or canned corn 1-2 tablespoons butter 1/2 cup yellow onion 1/4 cup bell pepper (or not) 1/4 cup green onions 1 jalapeno, diced (I only used 1/2 a jalapeno. I’m a wimp.) 1 clove garlic, diced 1/4 cup mayo 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper 1-2 handfuls monterey jack cheese 1-2 handfuls cheddar salt and pepper, to taste 1. Melt butter in pan. 2. Add corn. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for about 5 minutes, until corn starts to brown, stirring occasionally. Set aside. 3. Melt butter in pan and add onions and bell pepper. Cook for about 2 minutes, until onions are soft. 4. Add in the jalapeno, green onions, and garlic. Cook another two minutes, until softened. 5. Dump jalapeno and onion mixture into the bowl of corn. Add in 1-2 handfuls of monterey jack cheese, mayo, and cayenne pepper. Stir to combine. 6. Spread in a baking dish and cover the top with shredded cheddar cheese. 7. Bake for about 15 minutes, or until warmed through and the top has browned.

I saw butter twice....I bet that's goooooood!! Totally not on the plan, but it does sound awesome.

japow1984

Haha. I didn't even notice the multiple butters on there. I wonder if it is a Paula Dean original recipe..

LISA R

This probably isn't your typical "fall" dip however I love eating this all the time.20oz sour cream1 bag of shredded cheese 1 packet of ranch dipMix together, tastes best when chilled overnight or for several hours. Use tortilla chips.  FSIL gave me the recipe, we go through at least two batches at any get together!!

I have a simple bean dip that you can make and you can tweak it to your liking by adding or subtracting beans that you dont like. 1 can red beans, drained 1 can black beans, drained 1 can black eyed peas, drained   2-3 stalks of chopped celery1-2 cups corn 1-2 stalks of green scallions (optional, I leave it out)1/2 cup chopped green pepper .5 cup white sugar .5 cup white vinegar 1 cup veggie oil In a small pot place the sugar, vinegar and veggie oil. Bring to a boil and let simmer for 3-5 minutes Then pour over the beansPlace in fridge and let it chill. I usually use whatever beans I have. You can make it your own by adding white corn instead of yellow. Its yummy with those scoup chips.

Ok I found a good one. Anything with cheese and garlic has to be good. I'm big on try herbs so I'll probably do some substituting. Yummy Thyme and Garlic Cheese Dip1 tablespoon (packed) fresh thyme leaves 1/2 garlic clove 1/2 teaspoon coarse salt 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper 1 7 1/2-ounce package farmer cheese or one 8-ounce package cream cheese 1/4 cup sour cream Blend first 4 ingredients in processor until garlic is finely chopped, occasionally scraping down sides of bowl. Add cheese and sour cream; blend well. Season with more salt and pepper, if desired. Transfer to serving bowl; chill 30 minutes. (Dip can be made up to 1 day ahead. Cover; chill.)
