13. Hummus

Hummus

Hummus is one of the easiest types of dip there is: just combine chickpeas, lemon juice, tahini paste, garlic powder, salt, and olive oil in a food processor until smooth!

Add more olive oil if needed for desired consistency; add more lemon juice if needed for desired tartness/flavor balance (the hummus will absorb the liquid from your naan).

Heat up in microwave until hot (if serving cold) or serve immediately!

14. Olive Oil Bread Dip

The perfect dip for any occasion, this olive oil dip is simple and delicious.

Just mix together butter, garlic salt, basil, oregano, parsley flakes, black pepper and olive oil in a bowl until well combined (add more salt if needed).

15. Mississippi Sin Dip

This recipe has an incredible amount of flavor from spicy jalapenos and creamy blue cheese!

The combination of flavors is sure to please any palate!

If you want to make this recipe more kid-friendly, just leave out the cayenne pepper for a milder version.

Or if you want it really spicy, leave in all three ingredients (jalapeno peppers, hot sauce, and cayenne pepper) for an extra punch of heat!

16. Blue Cheese Dip

This dip is so rich and creamy—it will definitely be your new favorite way to enjoy blue cheese dressing.

Combine 1 cup crumbled blue cheese with 1 cup Greek yogurt in a bowl until well mixed, then add salt and pepper to taste.

You can serve this as-is or over celery sticks, carrots sticks or broccoli florets for dipping (or whatever else you have on hand!).

17. Layered Taco Dip

The combination of cheese, beef and salsa is sure to please even the pickiest eaters at your party.

Make sure to use a good quality salsa so that it doesn’t overpower the rest of the flavors in this dip!

18. Corned Beef Dip

This dish takes a bit longer than our other choices, but it’s well worth it.

It’s also super easy to make and can be made in advance as well!

Plus, corned beef sandwiches are always a hit! Just spread this tasty dip on some bread slices, pop them into mini muffin cups (or whatever container you have on hand), and bake until golden brown and bubbly.

Serve with crackers or chips for an easy appetizer that will be gone before anyone knows what hit them!
