Summer Dip & Hawaiian Roll Sandwiches

Recipe #1: Summer Dip // I learned this recipe a few years ago from a friend of a friend and it has developed over time and I've added more and more ingredients:
  • Bean Dip
  • Sour Cream
  • Cheddar Cheese
Optional:
  • Diced Green Chiles
  • Jalapenos
  • Black Olives
Mix bean dip, sour cream and green chiles together.  Top with cheddar cheese, jalapenos and black Olives.  Eat with Pita Chips. 

I take this dip out on the lake almost every time we go and it's the first thing to get eaten.  It might sound a little weird with bean dip and sour cream, but I promise it WILL NOT disappoint!'


Recipe #2: Hawaiian Roll Sandwiches
  • Hawaiian Rolls
  • Sliced Cheese
  • Turkey or Ham
Unfortunately I have to give credit to my brother Cy for this idea, it's brilliant!  Perfect for the lake, picnics, any time you need to keep sandwiches in a cooler, this is the way to go!

Open package and pull all the rolls apart. Keep them in the same order that they came in the packaging, this will make it easier to put them all back together. 

Slice the rolls in half using a serrated knife, but don't slice all the way through.

Place half a piece of cheese and a piece of meat on the rolls.

 Fold rolls back together and keep in the cardboard packaging.  This will keep the sandwiches from getting soggy in the kooler.  Place back in the bag.  The perfect sandwich!

 Take the dip and sandwiches out on the lake and enjoy your day!


Don't forget Meg and I will be having a Bachelor Pad Blab and Gab Link-Up tomorrow.  I will post the button in my sidebar!

How was your weekend?

Linking up for the weekend wrap-up!

  15. My boyfriend makes something similar to that dip, and it is delicious! Also - you can NEVER go wrong with Hawaiian rolls. Those things are the best.

    I'm a bad American and didn't watch the opening ceremonies, but I didn't hear very good reviews!

  17. Thanks for stopping by my blog! Your recipes look yummy!! This is similar to your Hawaiian roll recipe but there's a delish poppy seed sauce you brush on top and then bake them in the oven!! SO good! Check it out here: http://pearls-handcuffs-happyhour.blogspot.com/2011/12/slide-slide-slippety-slide.html

  21. I've made and love both those recipes before...but never repackaged the sammiches so smartly...I usually just shove them in a ziploc bag, but that was a good tip to try! And I love any swimming activity, I even stumbled upon some extreme kayaking (not sure what it's really called hah) yesterday which was pretty cool too.

  30. okay, i have been wanting to try the bud light lime-a-rita, but am so nervous about the taste. I can handle a Bud Light Lime, but could freaking chug a margarita---so which one does it tend to favor? beer or 'rita? make a believer out of me! :)
