Thanks Fletch for the recipe it turned out great. Do you have any more recipes??

Of course I have more recipes. heres one that is quick and simple.
Nachos - get plain nachos place them in a cooking bowl then take sour cream put desired amount on top of nachos and then salsa, try to put the same amount of each on top then top with grated cheddar or marble cheese my favorite. then if you want to put peppers or any other toppings now is the time , then place in the oven at 350 for about 10 to 15 min.
taste like restaurant nachos.

I tried to spinach dip too, and it was awesome. I took it to a girlfriends place and by the end of the night it was gone.

Serves 4, and the two of us downed it all!! oh yeah!!!!!!

I can't believe you've all had it and I haven't when it's my favorite! jk

I'll have to make that this week!

Yeah, it was good.

I put half sour cream and half mayo, instead of all mayo.

If I were to make it again, I would decrease the amount of spinach, or increase the mayo to make it more creamy

Still great recipe, but just my personal preference

I tried your nacho recipe and it turned out very well, my company loved it and you were right it was very easy to cook, the hardest thing was waiting for the food to cook. Thanks

Now that is my style appitizer. Those cheese sticks sound very good I think I'm going to give them a try, let everyone know how they turned out.

That spinach dip is good with nachos, crackers, begal chips... anything!

That's the good thing about it because depending on your preference, you can serve it with what you like.

If you're looking for an easy appetizer, most grocery stores sell dips. I know I've had the three cheese and bacon one, and there are several others that are really good. You can serve it with bread sticks or whatever you prefer.

All you have to do is heat it up a little bit if you'd like and put it in a dish and its ready to go!

buying from a store is ok but nothing is better than cooking it yourself sure it takes longer but I think it tasts soooo much better.

maximus · Joined: 29 Jun 2006 Posts: 69

And you almost feel proud of yourself after the meal is cooked, like hey I cooked this and it's good.

chicky · Joined: 21 Apr 2006 Posts: 72

I agree, but when you get invited to a dinner party at the last minute, it's good Wink

I have a nice bruschetta recipe if anyone is interested.
1 tbsp salt (or less to taste),1 tbsp pepper, 1 tbsp sugar (optional), 2 tbsp basil (preferably fresh), 1/8 tbsp minced garlic (more if desired), 2 large chopped tomatoes, 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil.
instructions: chop tomatoes into cubes, cut length wise then turn and cut length wise again then place on side and cut you will have perfect cubes. the harder the tomato is the easier this will be. after all tomatoes are cut put all your ingredients on top and mix very well, then put into fridge for an hour and a half then serve. using italian breed to get best results.

I'm definately going to cut and paste this recipe. Cheers on the tip for cutting the tomatoes.
