Dill Pickle Dip: Recipe

Can you guys believe it's already the LAST FRIDAY in January?! Holy smokes - this month has flown by! Or is it just me?

Today's recipe is one that I found a long time ago... and I'd been wanting to make it ever since but never had. I decided to make it on New Year's Eve to coincide with my favorite beer cheese dip, and I LOVED it. I can't wait to make it again, but I definitely don't need a whole bowl of this to myself.


This dill pickle dip was SO easy to make, and it really hit the spot. If you don't like dill pickles, I'm sure you could use another kind (bread and butter or sweet gherkins). I personally love ALL pickles, so this was just perfect for me.

Our friends gobbled it up on New Year's Eve, but I was super happy to have some leftovers for the following days. I served this with pretzels, but really, you could use crackers or chips too.



This is definitely not the healthiest dip in the world, but look how creamy and amazing it is! My mouth is watering just looking at these photos, and I want to make more. It's a good thing I've got all the ingredients in my fridge! ;-) 


Dill Pickle Dip

Ingredients

• 1 cup sour cream
• 4 ounces (1/2 block) cream cheese, softened
• 1 tbsp minced onion
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
• 5 medium sized dill pickles, finely chopped

Directions

1. Combine the sour cream and cream cheese until smooth.
2. Add in the minced onion, salt, parsley, and pickles.
3. Refrigerate until serving.
4. Serve with pretzels, crackers, chips, etc.

Easy Beer Cheese Dip: Recipe

Food Friday is back for week two!



This week, I have a very simple dip for you that I served at Dan's 25th birthday party last year and again on New Year's Eve this year. It's always a big hit. I highly recommend making this dip if you have people coming over. The ingredients are minimal, so it's not bad to put together, and I have never heard of a person who didn't enjoy it. It's really salty, so beware: have cold beer on hand too!




This stuff is seriously so addicting. You can't have just one bite. You'll keep reaching for more pretzels and going back for more. This would also be great with crackers or bread (beer bread would be amazing) if you don't like pretzels or have any on hand. 

Here's the recipe - so simple!
