6 Dip Ideas for the Super Bowl

With the Super Bowl coming up in a week, I know that there are plenty of people out there trying to come up with easy but tasty (and hopefully somewhat healthy!) munchies to bring to a party or have at their own place. As I mentioned in my last post when sharing my recipe for queso fresco black bean dip, I am most definitely an appetizer and dip lover. So, without further adieu, I thought I’d share 6 awesome dip recipes with you today:

French Onion Dip

I just whipped up my take of this classic yummy dip for the first time last New Year’s Eve. I liked it so much, I just may make it again on Sunday! Serve it with carrots, celery, pretzels, or (homemade) potato chips. You can check out the recipe here.

Spinach & Artichoke Dip 

A lighter version than what you’ll find in restaurants all over the place, this dip is one of my all-time favorite football watching recipes. You can find the recipe here.

Avocado Hummus

In my opinion, you can never go wrong with hummus. It’s so easy to make, delicious and healthy. For a twist on classic hummus, throw some roasted red pepper in or make this avocado hummus.

Cinnamon Cream Cheese Dip

It’s well known that I’m obsessed with cinnamon, so coming up with a cinnamon dip was a no-brainer for me. It’s great to serve with your favorite fruit. Personally, I’ve been dipping cinnamon toast Pretzel Crisps into the dip because they’re out of this world yummy.

This 5-ingredient dessert dip recipe is new up on the Girls Gone Sporty website! You can find it here.

White Bean Pesto

I slightly altered this recipe from Chef Del’s Better Than Vegan cookbook, and my hubby and I have been eating it with everything, including as a sandwich spread, dipping veggies into it, or as pictured above, as a crostini topper. I even got a little fancy and threw some dried cranberries and cashews around the dish, which takes all of 10 seconds and adds a nice touch to the appetizer. Here’s the recipe:
