Another pinterest idea

Last weekend we went to a baby shower for our friends who are having a baby girl next month.

{yay for more friends for Bailey!}

It was a potluck BBQ at a park and I used it as a way to try out an idea from Pinterest.

I love eating five (or six or seven) layer dip, but hovering around the food table, dipping chips, is always a little awkward. I saw a good way to be able to mingle and move around a bit more:

You make individual dips in individual cups with room for chips on top!

It was a little time consuming, but it was definitely worth it, everyone really liked them.

I used everything premade and started layering them:

refried beans

sour cream

salsa

guacamole (next time I'd make my own so it's a little thinner and easier to spread)

cheese

black olives

We used scoop chips, but next time I'd use strips. The scoops were a bit thin and the cups were too narrow to get a good scoop.

I've also seen individual cups of raw veggies (cut into strips with ranch in the bottom of the cup).

Thanks Pinterest!!
