Carrot dip may sound unusual, but this Mediterranean-style blend is a perfect balance of sweet and spicy, and a nice change of pace from hummus. It's delicious with pita bread or pita chips.
The recipe used what I had on hand in my kitchen after buying the spinach, marinated artichoke quarters, and cream cheese blindly without checking recipe for guidance first.
A fruity salsa, great with pita chips. One guy I know was gonna pay me to make this for him. I like to let mine sit for at least an hour and give it a stir every so often. However, if you want to eat it...

Duck rillettes is one of the most amazing culinary magic tricks of all time. Even though most of the spread is made up of fairly lean duck meat, by emulsifying it in a little butter, duck fat, and duck...
Great appetizer on crackers! Whenever I go to a party, I get requested to make this. I never come home with leftovers! I like to use Lawry's Tabasco Seasoned Salt, it's hot, but good!

A refreshingly sweet and tangy blend. Especially good when cooked on the grill and served with a mild fish such as tilapia. If you are grilling fish, the salsa can be cooked on the grill at the same time...

A lovely pumpernickel bread bowl is the container for this simple spinach dip. It's perfect for parties, tastes fabulous and is attractive to look at. Dry onion soup mix may be substituted for dry dill...
