Hey there! Welcome to this month’s Jen’s Clever DIY Ideas Newsletter where I’m sharing my 4 personal favorite party table snack foods that I make pretty much ALL the time.
I made these 4 appetizers below for book club last week and everyone LOVED them.
Thankfully, they’re easy enough to make AND easy on the wallet too.
For example, the viral No Name Dip.
Yes, it’s really called The No Name Dip.
If I were to name it, I would call it The Can’t-Stop-Eating-It Dip – it’s THAT good!
Best of all, it’s SO easy to make – just a tub of sour cream, 2 cups of bacon bits or crumbles, a bag of shredded cheese and a packet of dry ranch dressing seasoning mix.
BUT – I have a secret way to make this dip even BETTER!
With one simple and CHEAP extra ingredient, this No Name Dip goes from really good to FANTASTIC.
All you need is a can of pre-cooked chicken breast (you know, the canned chicken you see near the canned tuna in the store?)
Open that can, drain the chicken really well, dump it in a bowl and shred it up.
Then, mix in the other basic ingredients from the image above.
Trust me, it is PHENOMENAL!
Be sure to pin that No Name Dip recipe above so you always have it…
Then keep scrolling to see all the other appetizers and snacks we had at book club WITH the recipes.
