Notes

Dip Variations

There are many different things you can add to this dip to change it up.

Celery – You can either add diced celery or just use it on the side for dipping.
Minced Onions – Adding a tablespoon of minced onion will kick this recipe up a notch. Of course, you can always use diced onions if you prefer.
Hot Sauce – If you like spicy, then by all means add a tablespoon or two of hot sauce or tabasco sauce.
Diced Jalapenos – If you really like spicy then add some diced jalapeno peppers. Or, you can stuff the Jalapeno peppers with some dip and eat them that way.
Minced Garlic – This always adds some flavor to dips. I wouldn’t add too much unless, of course, you and everyone else love garlic.
Diced Chicken – By adding diced chicken and hot sauce, it almost makes it like a Buffalo Chicken Dip. And to make it easier, you can use rotisserie chicken.
