Answers:
Softened cream cheese is a great base!. Add any of the other intensely flavored items in equal proportion, tapenade, or pesto spread!. Mix, thin with sour cream or even the yogurt (lower calorie option)!.

Onion dip is always easy, and fast, and after making fresh, a million times better than the packaged stuff!.

Cut cream cheese into cubes!. Add to a mixing bowl and soften on counter!. Dice an onion, sweat in 1 tbsp each olive oil and butter, or just one or the other if that's all you have!. Sprinkle 1/2 tsp of salt (for one average size onion), and a tiny pinch of cayenne pepper (tiny!)!. When it's translucent and soft, turn up the heat a bit until they're a rich golden brown!. Set aside to cool!. Stir the cream cheese, stir in a spoonful of mayo, and 2 spoonfuls of sour cream or yogurt!. Mix the onions into the cream cheese mixture!. If you use alcohol deglazing the pan with a small amount (1 tsp) of anything, bandy, whiskey, sherry, cooking wine, etc will dramatically enhance the flavor!. Taste and add more salt if needed!. Allow to cool for about 20 minutes on the counter, then place the bowl in the freezer, stirring every 10 minutes!. When it's no longer hot, eat!. Or refrigerate and flavors will blend a bit better!.

A quickie sundried tomato pesto dip might be good too, toast some pine nuts (handful) in a skillet just until golden, allow to cool!. If sundried tomatoes are olive packed, drain and chop well (handful worth), or chop in food processor!. Add parmesan (few tbsp) and pine nuts!. Pulse in food processor!. Add cream cheese!. Pulse again!. Salt to taste if needed!. Chill 10 minutes (or more!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

my favorite dip at the moment is about as easy as it gets but tastes SO GOOD with tortilla chips or wheat thins!.!.!.just mix salsa & cream cheese together in whatever proportions you like! if you want to get fancy, you can add garlic, chopped veggies (peppers, onions, tomatoes, corn, etc), and even canned chicken if you want it to be heartier!. you can also add sour cream if you like a thinner dip!. but it really is great with just the 2 ingredients; you can have it warm or cold, and you can use whatever salsa (mild, medium, hot) you like best!

i know it doesn't sound like much, but for something you can whip up in less than a minute, it's pretty darn good :-DWww@FoodAQ@Com

cubed ham, cream cheese, shredded cheese, splash or two of red wine, red onion thinly sliced, paprika sprinkled over the top!. put the ham in the blender until it's in a crushed state put in a bowl, add cream cheese, shredded cheese, red wine, red onion, mix with a spoon and put in the fridge for two hours and it's ready to serve, it's de lish, good luck and tell me what you think, God BlessWww@FoodAQ@Com

My fav for wheat thins is Hot Artichoke-Spinach Dip
1 Cup chopped artichoke hearts (canned or frozen)
1/2Cup frozen chopped spinach
8oz cream cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
Slowly heat cream cheese until soft and melty and add artichoke + spinach!. Add remainder of ingredients!. I generally stick it in the oven on 350 to brown it a little!. Chopped tomatoes on the top is great after baking to add some acid to all of the richness!.
