7 Layer Cream Cheese Dip Recipe

Image
This 7 layer dip recipe is one that I have been making for so many years that I cannot even remember when I first discovered it. It has become one of my own special party buffet dishes and one that I am often requested to create. There is always at least one function each year that I am asked (or should I say told) to bring this dip to. If I do not come through I discover there are a lot of upset people at the party looking to satisfy their craving for my dip. It's the abundance of flavor that takes this appetizer so unique. The Dip (as we call it) is multi-functional and can be used with chips, breads, or virtually any variety of cracker. It's even good on its own. Personally I prefer my dip with Ritz Crackers or Wheat Thins while my husband enjoys his with Veggie Thins. Perhaps you have something different that you would like to try it with. I'm sure it will taste great with just about anything. It is so good the seven layer dip is almost a meal in itself. Here Ar

My daughter was at a birthday party sleepover a little while ago and was very impressed with their evening meal. For dinner they had these "pizza grilled cheese sandwiches" and she was emphatic on how really good this food was.  She was trying to explain how they were cooked and was saying that it was pressed in this "thing". I asked if it was a Panini and her head nodded very quickly in an excited yes motion. (A panini is basically a sandwich that is grilled on both sides.)  They sounded like such a great idea for supper and would be a delicious and super easy meal so I decided that we would try it. Only curve in the road was the fact that I didn't have a Panini Pan. No problem! George Foreman to the rescue. The man is my hero and not for his boxing skills.  My kids are having pizza panini for supper.
