Game Night Dips

Posted in appetizers, dips at 12:00 am

 

This is a collection of dips that I use for mine and Tim’s football get together’s. I hope you find something that you can use and that you give them a try and let me know what ya’ll think.

 

Low Fat Guacamole Dip:

1 cup low-fat cottage cheese

1 tablespoon grated sweet onion or 1-1/2 teaspoons dried onion flakes

1 clove garlic, minced, or 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon salt

Pinch of cayenne pepper

2 teaspoons lemon juice

1 ripe avocado, peeled and cut in chunks

1 tomato, peeled and chopped

 

Place cottage cheese, onion, garlic, salt, cayenne pepper, lemon juice, and avocado in a food processor or heavy-duty blender. Process until smooth. Pour into serving dish and fold in chopped tomato. Cover with plastic wrap, making sure the plastic touches the entire surface of the dip ( this is done to help prevent browning), and refrigerate for 2 hours.

 

Creamy Onion Dip:

1 cup dairy sour cream
8 ounces softened cream cheese
3tablespoon onion soup mix
2 tablespoons fresh, snipped parsley

Thoroughly combine sour cream, mayonnaise or salad dressing, onion soup mix and parsley. Cover; chill until serving time. Serve with your choice of chips or crackers.
