APPETIZERS TAILGATING

Skillet Pizza Dip

This Skillet Pizza Dip recipe was submitted by April Okerman as part of The Traveling Apron Recipe swap and it’s not only one of the best dips you can have on hand for tailgating, it also made its way into The Traveling Apron Cookbook. 

Tailgate Tuesday: Pizza Dip

 The creaminess of the cream cheese in this Skillet Pizza Dip makes the recipe “dippable” but the fun really begins with the toppings.

Like a pizza, it’s really endless with how many different flavorings you can come up with.

I like to serve several different options in smaller size cast iron skillets so that everyone can find something they enjoy.

I’ve served it with breadsticks before, as well as toasted baguettes. There’s really no right or wrong way to serve it!

Prep time: 5 mins
Cook time: 30 mins
Total time: 35 mins

  • 1 package cream cheese, softened
  • Small can pizza sauce, about Β½ cup worth
  • 1 c. Shredded Italian Blend Cheese
  • Half package mini pepperoni, or chop 1 cup regular pepperoni
Instructions
  1. Spread cream cheese on the bottom of an 8×8 pan. Top with pizza sauce and sprinkle with cheese. Place the pepperoni over the top. Bake at 375 for about 30 minutes or until bubbly. You can add pretty much any toppings to it that you like on your pizza. The more the better. Serve with chips, bread or veggies for dipping.

 Tomorrow, at noon on WAFB I’ll be doing a live cooking demonstration with one of the Baton Rouge Junior League’s recipes, and it’s quite similar. I’ll have the recipe up in the morning and will later add the video so you guys can hear what I sound like in person.

And see me make funny faces when I decorate pizza!

Slooooowly getting into the groove of 2021. Since Slooooowly getting into the groove of 2021. Since it's been so long since I've been able to enjoy a good ole’ Olive Garden soup, salad & breadsticks combo, I took matters into my own hands and recreated the experience at home complete with Pasta e Fagioli. πŸ₯£ Side note: Did y'all know they sell their OG salad dressing at the grocery?! 😳 Since I'm also attempting to do better with meal prepping and make ahead meals this new year, I'm freezing half for the next time I have a craving I can't control...or the temps in Louisiana drop without warning. WINNING. πŸ™ŒπŸ₯£

#ad With its perfect shade of red, this fruity and #ad With its perfect shade of red, this fruity and festive, family-friendly Pomegranate Punch is sparkling and glistening....you won't even realize there's alcohol missing! Strolling through @Sprouts, I saw that the plump pomegranates were on sale and I had no choice but to add them to my buggy. They're delicious in recipes, but they serve double duty as serving tray adornment! πŸ™Œ 
Here's what you need to grab:
1 medium-sized pomegranate 
1/4 cup pomegranate juice (extracted from the pomegranate)
4 cups multi fruit cranberry juice (I used Langer’s Cranberry Plus also found at Sprouts) 
1 1/2 cups lemonade 
6 cups ginger ale 
garnishes: pomegranate arils, lemon slices, lime slices
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Prepare the pomegranate juice by first rolling the pomegranate to loosen the seeds. 
Cut the pomegranate in half, and hold each half over a bowl, seeds facing down and push inward on the skin forcing the seeds into the bowl. Reserve several arils for garnish; rinse and set aside. 
Add 1 cup of the removed pomegranate seeds to the blender. Pulse a couple of times, just enough to juice. 
Pour the juice through a fine mesh strainer and use the back of the spoon to gently press the seeds so that all of the juice is extracted. Set aside 1/4 cup. 
Add the 1/4 cup of pomegranate juice, 4 cups of fruit juice, 1 1/2 cups lemonade and 6 cups of ginger ale to a large pitcher. Stir to combine. 
Top with slices of lemons, limes and the reserved pomegranate seeds. 
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
That's it. Load your serving tray up with extra fruit and then stand back and watch everyone rave and feel a little fancy- even the kiddos. ❀️
