Directions
Savory Pumpkin Dip, I served this recipe at a Halloween themed party years ago and it was a big hit I had moved and lost touch with most of the ladies who had attended the party However, several years later, I received a phone call from one of the women who had been a guest at the party she said she had been trying to track me down all that time because she wanted a copy of the recipe of the pumpkin dip I had served I very happily provided her with the recipe and here it is for everyone else I served this inside a large round of bread, which can be dyed orange to make it look like a pumpkin Just use any recipe you like for a yeast bread and add orange food coloring to the dough (you can reserve a small dough ball and dye it green to stick on top of the round loaf before baking to represent a stem) cut off the top of the loaf of bread and scoop out the inside to form a cavity to place your dip inside, then serve the bread guts as dippers, along with fresh veggies, crackers, chips, etc whatever you prefer , Excellent! I served this at a football party, and people couldn’t get enough of it! I omitted the black olives (personal preference) and made half with the ham and half without (for vegetarian guests) It was great with veggies, crackers, baguette, and tortilla chips Thanks for a keeper!, I made this to take to a friend’s for Thanksgiving and put it in a cute ceramic pumpkin baking dish for a hostess gift The presentation was very nice We enjoyed this with assorted veggies used Emeril’s Southwestern spice in place of the Mexican and added a little salt and pepper We all really liked this, and I will make again
