Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Summer is a great time for entertaining and having fun with family and friends. What’s more fun then sharing a beautiful afternoon or evening outdoors with good company and good food? To that end, I have recipes for two easy to make summer dips, courtesy of Frito-Lay.

Frito-Lay Garden Lime Dip

Garden Lime Dip

Prep time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

1 avocado, peeled, pitted and chopped
1 red onion, diced
3 tablespoons lime juice
1 jar TOSTITOS® Salsa

Instructions:

Mix together all ingredients. Serve immediately with TOSTITOS® Hint of Lime flavored Tortilla Chips.

Frito-Lay Mango Salsa Chutney

Mango Salsa Chutney

Prep time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

2 mangoes
1 onion
1 jalapeño, finely chopped
1 handful cilantro
Juice of one or two limes
1/4 jar TOSTITOS® Salsa

Instructions:

Chop all ingredients into similar-size pieces (except jalapeños, which should be finely chopped). Mix together in large bowl. Serve immediately with TOSTITOS® Hint of Lime flavored Tortilla Chips.

Also, here are some tips to help you get ready for all those barbecues, picnics and outdoor parties:

Keep Your Cool – When it’s hot outside, the last place you want to be is in a kitchen with the oven blazing! Cool down with appetizers and snacks made from fruits and veggies, like our easy-to-make Garden Lime Dip — a perfect pairing with snacks like Tostitos® Hint of Lime chips!
Keep it Simple – A party isn’t a party without chips and dip, but not all chips are created equal. For example, some of Frito-Lay’s most popular snacks, such as Tostitos Scoops! tortilla chips and Lay’s Classic potato chips are made with only three simple ingredients: potatoes or corn, healthier oils and salt – that’s it! Use your favorite chips as a vehicle to dish up extra nutrition by pairing them with dips made with fruits and vegetables, like our Mango Salsa Chutney.
Keep it Fun – Give a traditional potluck a modern twist by asking guests to share their recipes before they arrive. As guests leave the party, provide them with a festive printout of all the recipes so they can recreate the tasty dishes at home.
