Great dips for entertaining!

I was making a dip for my Creative Memories Workshop tonight and thought I would put up some good dip recipes that are great for when entertaining guests. The first one is the one I made for tonight.

Great with veggies or sourdough bread. I buy the Melba snack bread and it's great on that too!

Mix all in a crockpot and let it cook down. Stir occasionally. Serve with tortilla chips. Beware: VERY ADDICTING!!
