Chicken Salad Recipe

Chicken salad is the perfect, light summer snack or meal! A friend and co-worker brought this combo in to a potluck one night and I loved it!! What I love most about this recipe is that it doesn't use any mayo! (Thanks Kim!) The versatility of it is awesome too! You can eat it as a sandwich on a croissant, as a snack/dip with crackers or bread, or as an appetizer in some phyllo cups!

What you need:

1. Sweet vidalia onion dressing (approx. 1/2 cup, or to taste)
2. Shredded chicken
3. Grapes (approx. handful, cut up)
4. Celery (approx. 6-8 stalks diced up)
5. Sliced alomonds (approx. 1/2 2.25 oz. bag)

Make it:

1. Mix everything together and enjoy!!

Zesty Sausage Dip

Welcome to Recipe Tuesday!
I am excited to share with you today a recipe from my awesome co-worker and friend, DeLynn. It is a sausage dip and once you start you seriously can't stop eating it! This dip is so easy to make and SO yummy! Enjoy! And as always, you can find the link ups at the end of the post for more delicious recipes!

Zesty Sausage Dip

What you Need:

• Package of zesty Bob Evans sausage (this is the key ingredient!)
• Block (8oz) cream cheese (to warm temperature)
• 2-3 handfuls of Velveeta shredded cheddar cheese
• 2-3 squirts of Mayo or Miracle Whip
• Crock pot
• Pita Crackers

Make it:

• Brown the sausage in a pan. It can get pretty greasy so I recommend draining it before adding to the crock pot.
• Mix all of the ingredients in a crock pot.
• Heat on low until warmed and heated through.
• Serve with pita crackers.

(Sorry, we had this as a late night snack at work this weekend and 

we dug in so quickly I didn't get a good "done" picture!)

(Like I said, it didn't last long!)

This will make the perfect appetizer at your next get together, you might want to double the batch because it WILL go fast!
