1 17.3 ounce package frozen puff pastry

1/3 cup plus 2 teaspoons Pizza sauce or sour cream

½ cup plus 1 tablespoon shredded mozzarella

Thinly sliced red onion and red pepper

Italian Seasonings

Fresh oregano or basil to garnish

Place oven rack in the center of the oven, and preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Remove frozen pastry sheets from box and paper wrappings. Thaw pastry sheets at room temperature for about 40 minutes or until pastry unfolds easily, but pastry is still cold. Unfold pastry on a lightly floured surface, and remove any additional paper wrappings. Cut each sheet into 9 pieces by cutting down the fold lines, then cutting each row into three equal pieces.

Line two cookie sheets or baking sheets with parchment paper, and place 9 pastry squares on each baking sheet.

Spoon 1 teaspoon pizza sauce or sour cream into the center of each pastry square, and spread to a thin layer, leaving about a 1-inch space along each side. Sprinkle each square with ½ tablespoon shredded cheese, and top with sliced red onion and red pepper. Generously sprinkle each with Italian Seasonings.

Bake in 400 degree oven for 13-17 minutes, rotating trays halfway through baking time, until the pastry is golden brown and puffed. Carefully remove from oven, place on a serving tray, and garnish with fresh herbs. Devour.

6 cups frozen corn

½ cup sour cream

8 ounces cream cheese

1 cup shredded pepper jack cheese

⅓ cup shredded parmesan cheese

2 jalapenos, diced

8 slices of bacon

Salt and pepper, to taste

Serve with Cheez-It Grooves or Pringles

Place the bacon into a large pan and cook over medium-heat until fully cooked. Place the cooked bacon on top of a paper towel lined plate.

Place the corn, sour cream, cheese, shredded cheeses, diced jalapenos, and 4 slices of crushed bacon on top. Cook on high for 2 hours, mixing occasionally if you are able to do so. Serve with the rest of the bacon crushed on top. You can also serve with Cheez-It Grooves.

1 medium onion, finely chopped

1 green bell pepper, finely chopped

1 tablespoon butter (or oil)

1/2 teaspoon EACH: Italian seasoning, garlic powder, AND onion powder

1/8 – 1/4 teaspoon cayenne

2 (8 ounce) blocks full fat cream cheese, room temp

1/4 cup mayonnaise

2 tablespoons sour cream

2 teaspoon red wine vinegar

1 lb. deli-sliced roast beef, chopped (see notes)

2 1/2 cups shredded provolone cheese

Heat the butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions and a pinch of salt. Stir as needed and let them soften and turn translucent, about 4-5 minutes. Add the bell peppers and let them cook for 1 minute, remove from heat. Stir in the Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature before adding to the dip mix.

Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 400ºF. Add the cream cheese to a large bowl and whip it using a hand mixer for 30 seconds. You can also do this with a rubber spatula. The cream cheese should still have some resistance to it. Add the mayo, sour cream, and red wine vinegar and mix it together using a rubber spatula. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Stir in the sautéed veggies, roast beef, and 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheese.

Spray a cast iron skillet or a 9×9 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray; add the prepared dip. Flatten out the dip and top with the remaining shredded cheese. Place the dish on a baking sheet to prevent spill over in the oven. Bake the dip for 20-25 minute. You can also pop it under the broiler for the last 1-2 minutes to get the cheese extra bubbly on top! Serve warm.
