a Cincinnati favorite.

i had the best time in ohio this past weekend and i was reminded that Cincinnati peeps love their skyline. while i didn't make it to one of the restaurants, i'm craving a natti favorite: skyline chili dip. i had my first taste in college and i have been addicted ever since (thank you jenny!). it's a cal-fest but trust me - well worth it.

LAYER
-1 a can of skyline chili (convince your ohio friend to bring you a can home or purchase a can online
-1 block of cream cheese (i usually sneak in a light variety...trust me, with everything else going on you won't notice the difference)
- 1 bag (2 cups) of shredded sharp cheddar cheese (since i went with light cream cheese - i stuck with the full fat shredded cheese. it melts better.) 

bake at 375 until bubbly brown
dip with your favorite cracker, chip or veggie (i prefer cheese-its or frito scoops. keepin it classy!) 

xo,

I got to school in Cincinnati, and Skyline dip is a staple at parties. It's so easy to make and delicious!

Amanda said...

Being a Cincinnati girl I love my Skyline ... probably a little too much. Oh, and did you know they now sell the dip pre-made? Super easy!

a boy on my floor in my freshman dorm was from Cinci and his AIM screenname was skyline(numbers) because of the chili! whoa, that takes me back. remember AIM? remember freshman year? yeah, me neither. but I'm pretty sure they happened. (note: don't date boys on your floor in your freshman dorm. it gets real awkward real fast! 18 year olds are NOT mature enough for that shiz.)
