Apache Bread Dip
We fell in love with Apache Bread Dip from the moment we were first introduced. What’s not to love about a hot ham & cheese dip served in a crusty bread bowl. If you’re lucky enough to score an Italian loaf in the shape of a football, while you might as well serve this dip on Game Day!!

Jalapeno Poppy Seed Chicken Casserole
Our Jalapeno Poppy Seed Chicken Casserole is a spin off of a very popular and delicious recipe. I enjoyed it at a luncheon recently and it’s been on my mind ever since. According to an internet search, it seems to have been recreated at least a bazillion times. Here’s our version, based on ingredients already in our fridge and pantry.

Beef, Bean & Cheese Nachos {with Jalapeños}
You know that little local Mexican joint that has become your convenient fast lunch or after-work margarita spot. Mine closed down without even as much as a good-bye whisper. While there wasn’t anything extra special about this place, their Beef, Bean & Cheese Nachos with Jalapeños became one of my favorite comfort foods.

Loaded Potato Bites
Have I got a fun little appetizer for you. Envision bite-sized baked potatoes loaded with sour cream, chives, cheddar cheese and bacon. Pop-in-your-mouth Loaded Potato Bite goodness. New potatoes are popping up at our local Farmers’ Market. I remembered one of my sister Sarah’s recipes and ran with it.

Chili & Cheese Topped Baked Potato {with Sour Cream & Bacon}. I love this combination so much that I got up bright and early one morning with the sole intention of making a pot of chili…so that I could picture it on top of this Perfectly Baked Potato.

Cheesy Mashed Potatoes
Cheesy Mashed Potatoes are a favorite Thanksgiving and Christmas side dish. Creamy mashed potatoes get a little flavor love with the addition of sour cream and cream cheese. Then they are baked casserole style with a topping of shredded cheddar cheese. One word. Yummy.

Loaded Butternut Squash Chips
Loaded Butternut Squash Chips. Think loaded potato skins, but better. At least that’s how we felt about them. The hint of sweetness from the butternut squash was soooo good with the savory toppings. These made a fantastic and fun appetizer.

Classic Loaded Baked Potato {with Butter, Sour Cream, Bacon, Cheddar and Chives}
This Classic Loaded Baked Potato. Popularized as a traditional side dish served with a nice juicy steak dinner. Any respectable steak house has worked nearly as hard to perfect the baked potato as they have say a Cowboy Cut Bone-In Rib Eye.
