Blue Cheese Pecan Dip

I recently had Trader Joe's Blue Cheese Roasted Pecan Dip. It is outrageously good and very addictive. Here is a version you can make at home if you are unlucky enough to not live near a Trader Joes.

Bruschetta & Lentil Dip

This Bruschetta & Lentil Dip is so addictive. It's such a great change from salsa. If you don't have a Trader Joe's near you, buy some ready-made bruschetta and cook some lentils.

Pomegranate Avocado Salsa

Pomegranate Avocado Salsa is without a doubt the most addictive salsa and really beautiful! Pomegranates and avocados are rich in  antioxidants. Trust me, this also won't last long and all your guests are going to want the recipe.

Citrus Vodka Dipping Sauce

This Citrus Vodka Dipping Sauce is perfect for lobster or shrimp. The tang from the citrus pairs perfectly with the sweetness of the lobster.

Cheesy Chutney Dip

Cheesy Chutney Dip makes a great appetizer. While living in England, one of my favorite sandwiches for lunch was simply cheese and chutney, which you could buy in almost every market. Boots Dispensing Chemist made a particularly good one, as well as Marks & Spencer and good old British Rail. I wish chutney was more popular / mainstream in the United States. Another one of my favorite things I make for lunch is cheese and chutney quesadillas. Two cultures colliding! A true fusion of favors or should I say flavours? Anyway, here is a wonderful dip recipe.
