Hmmm...my idea of appetizers is generally potato chips and Lipton onion/sour cream mix. Why? Because I found people dodged the Kalamata olives and hummas with homemade pita chips and went straight for this salty, noxious, delicious treat. It brings out the inner child, I guess.
I discovered people love bad appetizers. When I was a member of a tony NYC club, the manager realized that all the folks wanted with their drinks were Pigs in a Blanket.
But I look forward to reading all the recipes posted here!
Potato chips and dip are one of my faves, too.
I know I’ve mentioned this repeatedly, but I wish I could find a blue cheese dip recipe like the ‘Roka’ - I think it was Kraft - that they sold in a blue tin in the 1960s or so.
I’ve tried the blue cheese spread in a jar that our supermarket has at Christmas time, and it just doesn’t have the same ‘tang’.
I don’t have chips & dip at home except maybe twice a year, so when it’s offered I dig in! Love your story about pigs in blankets at the club. Another love of mine. A couple times a year I will make molten pigs in blankets......you add cheddar inside the split dog & it gets malty & browns. Heaven!
