Homemade Hummus

Homemade Hummus / Bev Cooks

It’s ABOUT time. I know. Hummus! Creamy, dreamy, smooth-like-buttah hummus. And guess what, I brought back a couple of tips from Israel! Including tahini from the original press in Jerusalem. Hello, cannot get any better than that. You can find good imported tahini everywhere, so just get the good stuff and you’re in fine shape […]

Ricotta Dip with Honey, Lemon and Chives

Ricotta Dip with Honey, Lemon and Chives / Bev Cooks

Back with another side dish! Dip-style. And this one is an under-five minute no brainer. Zero cooking. Only spooning and snipping and drizzling and sprinkling. Also, don’t tell anyone but it’s a copy cat of my beloved French Market’s famous ricotta dip. Only theirs is fresh ricotta (which you can totally do!), and hand dipped, […]

Another side dish! In dip form. Salsa form. You guys really like dips. Maybe this blog will be named Bev Dips from now on. (ew) It’s a (version of a) salsa that’s been swirling around the interflex for some time now. A little trendy, but I can’t help but see why. It’s the best of […]

It’s Dip Day! (<–not a thing) But it could be. This is one of those dreamy dips that sticks with you. It works best if you’d had a moment to chill it for a few minutes post blitzing so that it firms up, so try not to skip that part. The flavors are fire (apparently […]

Easiest Fondue Night!

Easiest Fondue Night / Bev Cooks

MORE LIKE FUNDUE. (oh please, you 100% saw that coming.) Baaaaack in the day, when Aaron and I were freshly married and living in our downtown loft in Kansas City and I had a good tight neck, we hosted annual Christmas Fondue parties. Like, every year for YEARS. For maybe three years. So not every […]

Skillet Cheesy Corn Dip

Processed with VSCO with a6 preset

Dog days. And I hate the words dog and days back to back. But it’s the gruesome reality we face. It’s the injustice ways of Mama Nay Nay with her lethal dragon breath upon our fragile skin. And I KNOOOOW turning on the oven is travesty. I get it! I do. But. It’s our only […]

Sausage Cheese Dip

I think we need a moment of silence, yes? Yes. I’m such a stupid lover of cheese dip, it’s stupid. Stupid stupid stupid. I made this last Saturday for the Arkansas/Alabama game (embaaaaaaarrassing) and – oh, did I host a party, you ask? Oh no. The cheese dip was for me. All two pounds of […]
