25 easy recipes for summer dip

Dips are definitely a complete food group for the Delish team. From queso to baked spinach-artichoke dip, these great dip recipes are easy to prepare, great on carrots, toasted baguettes, and pita bread, and can really please a crowd.

If you really think about it, dips really encapsulate the flavors of a meal. They can be cheesy and indulgent, like skillet beer cheese and jalapeño popper dip. Or topped with lots of fresh vegetables, herbs and spices, such as our muhammara, hummus and tzatziki. And of course savory and savory, such as our cheesy mini meatball dip, hot crab dip and buffalo chicken dip.

Looking for some lighter, cooler dips? It doesn’t get any better than our creamy avocado dip, guacamole, homemade salsa, and sour cream and onion dip. We also love our sikil p’ak (pumpkin pit salsa) for a fun, exciting twist on your regular old chips and salsa routine, especially served with plantain chips.

So whether you’re throwing a party or just want an appetizer that turns into a meal (or as a sandwich topping, chicken, or roasted veggies), we’ve got all the dips to get your summer party going (and keeping it going).

And if you have leftovers? Lucky you. We love taking all the leftover dips to add to all of our favorite main dishes. Use that cheesy bacon spinach dip to make spinach artichoke chicken fillets. Buffalo chicken dip is delicious in a melt, on a buffalo chicken pizza and filled with buffalo stuffed mushrooms. And it goes without saying that all of our salsa recipes are great with your next breakfast tacos and burritos.
