Thank you Karen!!
I'm doing a Sip 'n Dip in 2 weeks and really needed these recipes!!
 
Touchdown Taco Dip is awesome, a nd can easily be doubled in the Medium Bar Pan.
 
If you're making it ahead, the Layered Sun-Dried Tomato Dip is excellent:


Layered Sun-Dried Tomato Dip

1 package (8 oz) cream cheese
1/4 c prepared basil pesto (see notes)
1/2 c sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, drained (see notes)
1/4 c grated fresh Parmesan cheese
1 container (8 oz) sour cream
1 clove garlic, pressed
2 t Pantry Italian Seasoning Mix (see notes)

Preheat oven to 350F. Combine the pesto with half of the cream cheese. Mix well. Spread over the bottom of the Small Oval Baker (or another 2-cup baking dish).

Blot the excess oil from the tomatoes using a paper towel. Dice. Combine with remaining cream cheese and the rest of the ingredients. Mix well. Spread over pesto mixture. Bake 20-25 minutes or until hot and bubbly (will be slightly browned)

Serve with snack crackers, on fresh, thinly sliced French bread, or toast points.


Notes:

Prepared basil pesto can be found in jars near the spaghetti sauce in most stores. In some stores small tubs can be found near the refrigerated pasta.

Each store seems to keep their sun-dried tomatoes in a different place. Look in the produce section, with the condiments, or with other Italian foods. If you can find them, you may substitute soft, "dry" sun-dried tomatoes. Don't use the hard dry ones. Trust me. No matter how long you soak them they just never reach the right consistency for this recipe.

If you don't have the Pampered Chef's Pantry Italian Seasoning, you can substitute regular Italian seasoning.

If you're feeling really creative, you can top this dip, immediately after baking, with 1/4 c ripe olives (sliced or chopped) and 1 T fresh, chopped basil.
 
Yum, thanks for the ideas.
