Appetizers/ Cooking In Stilettos/ Tried and True Recipes

Roasted Butternut Squash Dip

Sometimes you just need an appetizer idea will wow your guests.

I believe that no party is really complete unless it has a fabulous dip that will have your guests coming back for more.  I adore traditional dips like my favorite Caramelized Onion Dip, cheesy, gooey Queso Fundido , Roasted Red Pepper Dip or perhaps a chic and easy Cheese Fondue.  However, when I was brainstorming recipes that would be perfect for not only fall, but also Halloween, I knew I had to make a savory Roasted Butternut Squash Dip.

This Roasted Butternut Squash Dip couldn’t be easier to whip up with just a few ingredients and you can customize it to your taste.  Like things a little hotter, add a dash more cayenne pepper or, perhaps, some fruity ancho chile.  Love roasted garlic, add a couple extra cloves.  The possibilities are endless.  I was inspired by a butternut squash dip from Cooking Light as I love using Greek yogurt in dip recipes. Roasting the veggies added some serious flavor and essentially it was into the oven, into the food processor, blitz and serve.  Easy peasy!

This Roasted Butternut Squash Dip will be perfect with crudites, tortilla chips or, my favorite, crisp pita chips.  Whip up a batch for your Halloween festivities along with Tequila Braised Short Rib Sliders and a Sparkling Black Widow’s cocktail and watch the ghosts and goblins dance all night long.
