Confession: Chips and dip is pretty much my all-time comfort food.

My grandma used to make this dill dip that I would devour with chips. My trick was to finish one element and then ask for the other. “But Grandma, I need more chips. We can’t waste this dip!” And visa versa. It only worked for so long, but I tried it every time.

And I wonder where G gets her negotiation skills from….

We are hosting a little family happy hour for NYE and I wanted to make all my favorite holiday classics: Wilburn’s meatballs, chips and dip, artichoke dip, chocolate chip cookies, brownies, and kale salad because, well I AM Badger Girl after all. I have a reputation. Oh, and it’s really GOOD kale salad. I swear.

So, I found this super easy recipe for onion dip and then tweaked it. I could tell you that it’s healthy because I do use Greek yogurt and it’s all real food ingredients, but screw that. It’s just really good dip. You should make it because it’s good. Justify it however you want….

Excuse my inexact measurements, but I will have to warn you: get used to them. I can never find my damn measuring spoons and cups. And I hate dirtying them up. A dusting is a quick shake. Error on the side of less. Same with splash. You can always add more.

 

 I hope you enjoy the dip. I will be noshing on it with 17 children under the age of 5 running around my house. Don’t worry, their parents will be there too.

I’m looking forward to be back to blogging with you. I have missed you, my friends. Check back often for more recipes and stories. I would love to hear from you!

How do you plan to spend NYE?
