Awesome Dill Pickle Dip

Have you ever had those dill pickle, cream cheese and dried beef roll-ups? We love them! In fact, my brother makes them for almost every family get-together! But, if you have ever made them, then you know that they are a pain in the butt to put together! I have the solution! I tried this dip a few months ago and fell instantly in love. It was the roll-up in a dip form and it wasn't messy or a ton of work (unlike the roll-ups!). This is a perfect addition to your New Years Eve parties, football game parties or family gatherings!

Here's the easy recipe:

Dill Pickle Dip

Ingredients
8 oz cream cheese (I use the light)
1 c sour cream (I use the light)
1 tsp onion onion powder
1 tsp parsley
3/4 c dill pickle spears--drained, finely chopped (about 6)
5 oz. dried beef--finely chopped

Directions:
Combine cream cheese, sour cream and seasonings in bowl. Beat until smooth. Stir in pickles and beef. Cover and chill in refrigerator for at least 2 hours. Serve with crackers.

I put the dip and crackers in the new two-tier server I made from a Target plate and bowl and served it up at Christmas at my parents. The only thing I took home was the server! 

Here's to a fantastic 2013!
