Any great tried and tested recipes out there? I'm always looking for a new favorite! Here's one I am going to try:
Buffalo Chicken Dip
2 cans shredded chicken
2 8-oz packages cream cheese
1/4 – 1/3 cup hot sauce (Franks, Buffalo sauce, etc.)
1 cup ranch dressing
1 1/2 cup shredded cheese (I'm going to try mexican)

Layer cream cheese at bottom of casserole dish, mix other ingredients separately (except cheese) and spread over cream cheese. Cover top with cheese, heat in oven at 350 until cheese is bubbly.

Let me know your suggestions for other recipes!

Here are some of my favorites:

Cream Cheese Cracker Spread:
Scallions, chopped black olives, cream cheese, cup grated cheese, dash garlic powder, dash onion powder, dash white pepper, dash salt. Blend together. shape into ball. serve with crackers. Optional: roll in chopped nuts.

Chicken Wings

We're all about easy! I buy the best sauce I can find for the flavor I want (terriaki, BBQ, etc.), then put the wings and the sauce in the crock pot until done (about 4-6 hours). If they're done sooner, I turn the crockpot to 'warm' and let them simmer. Yum!

This is the best and easiest dip recipe, and people always rave! I tell them it’s really hard to make (lol):

Cream Cheese Dip

2 large blocks of cream cheese
1 large jar Pace picante (medium)-use most of the jar

Soften cream cheese and mix with hand mixer until smooth. Add picante and mix with hand mixer. Leave in frig for a few hours to blend flavors. Serve with tortilla chips.

I know it seems too simple to be great, but it is!

Crab Dip is easy and very good.

1pkg Softened Cream Cheese
2 Tbsp Minced Onions
1/3 C. Bottled Chili Sauce
1 Can of Crab meat
Parsley Flakes to Garnish

Mix onion with cream cheese and spread on serving plate. Top with chili sauce. Sprinkle rinsed drained crabmeat on sauce & garnish with parsley flakes. Serve with Ritz crackers.

Takes about 5 minutes to put together .. and is always a hit!

SPINACH DIP

1 (10 oz.) pkg. frozen chopped spinach, cooked & drained
2 sm. thin scallions, chopped fine
2 lg. eggs, hard cooked & chopped fine
1/3 c. mayonnaise
1/3 c. sour cream
2 scant tbsp. fresh lemon juice
1 tbsp. Dijon mustard
1/2 tsp. Tabasco sauce
Dip size Fritos or tortilla chips

Mix mayonnaise, sour cream, lemon juice, mustard and Tabasco in medium bowl until smooth. Stir in spinach, scallions and eggs. Cover tightly and chill several hours. Serve with dip-size Fritos or tortilla chips. Yield: 2 cups.

This is fun!
Beer Boil

2 pounds of large shrimp (don't shell them)
2-3 cans beer (any kind)
water
1 pound kielbasa sausage
crab (king crab is best)
shrimp and crab boil (in any supermarket)

Slice the kielbasa into serving pieces. Wash the shrimp in cold water.

In a large pot, bring to a boil the beer, shrimp boil, and enough water to cover shrimp, etc.
Add crab and sausage. Cook 5 minutes. Add shrimp and cook until shrimp turns pink. Dump into a big pot. Use your fingers!!! Serve with melted butter, Gold Dipt cocktail sauce, and spicy mustard. Add frozen corn with the shrimp, if you like corn.

Here's my no fail, always asked-for nacho dip. When it's heated through, put it on warm or low, or unplug for a short time if it's too hot. Everyone raves about this:

1 1/2 pounds ground beef, browned
1 can cream mushroom soup
1/4 cup butter
2 lb Velveeta, cubed
2 cups Pace Chunky Salsa, (medium is our favorite, mild or hot if you like)
3 Tbsp Chili Powder

Put all into crock pot. Cook on low 1-1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally. Serve with tortilla chips. Yummy!

This is the newest addition. The author says your guests will lick the bowl. With an endorsement like that, how can I pass up trying this one?
