Dips And Spreads And A Contest, Too! :)
Most of the time a dip is something that happens while we are on our way to making a real meal, but that part of our intelligence gets waylayed by something called 'The Munchies"...
Usually for me, this manifests itself by forcing me to squirt half a bottle of chocolate syrup into a jar of peanut butter, and grabbing whatever I can find to dip into this mixture-- Dipping items don't necessarily have to be edible ie: Fingers, Wooden cooking tools ect, but it helps to have some around...
Amazingly there are products for dipping only... Usually in the veggie/chip sections of some supermarkets. These are postioned perfectly for "Snack-A- Holics " who might not have figured out that they can make these great tasting little side-dishes for themselves... Save a few bucks, already! :)
Here is the link to a great site called Better Recipes.
There is a contest going on with $250.00 bucks in prizes for your creations... That's about the average amount that most folks will spend on dips, especially after a night of partying...
Go over and take a look, have fun and come back here with you comments and recipes! I'd love to see 'em! :)

That's sound great, Cheryl! ;)
I've gotten my hands on this very deeply smoked Virginia Ham, and some Brie... There's something really good going to come from this! :)

Okay here's that lazy dip.
1/2 lb small to medium shrimp steamed
one can cream of mushroom soup
8 ounces sour cream
First steam your shrimp I use a large pot or dutch oven in the bottom of the pot place an old aluminum plate upside down. Use a fork to punch some holes in it first. Put your shrimp in then sprinkle a little Old Bay seasoning and add about 5 bay leaves. Add about 1/2 can of your favorite beer and steam until the shrimp turn pink (This is a good time to finish off the other 1/2
