Steps:

• Heat oven to 350ºF.
• Reserve 2 Tbsp. cilantro for later use. Mix cream cheese and CHEEZ WHIZ in medium bowl until blended. Add remaining cilantro and all other remaining ingredients; mix well.
• Spread onto bottom of 9-inch pie plate.
• Bake 20 min. or until heated through.
• Garnish with reserved cilantro.

Steps:

• Slice steak into thick pieces. Season generously on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Heat olive oil in a pan over high heat until smoking. Add steak slices and sear until bottoms are browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip over and reduce heat to medium. Cook until juices appear on the tops, 3 to 4 minutes more. Transfer to a bowl to cool.
• Add diced onion, a big pinch of salt, and butter to the meat juices in the pan. Cook and stir over medium heat, scraping up the browned bits, until onions start to soften, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Dice up the red bell pepper, green bell pepper, pepperoncini, pickled red peppers, and jalapenos until you have 1 1/2 to 2 cups. Add to the onions; cook and stir until starting to soften, about 5 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Chop steak into small pieces. Place back into the bowl with the accumulated meat juices. Add the onion-pepper mixture and cream cheese. Grate in the provolone cheese, saving a little for the top. Drizzle in Worcestershire sauce and sprinkle in cayenne pepper. Mix dip thoroughly.
• Transfer 1/2 of the dip into a small baking dish. Smooth the top with a fork. Place baking dish on top of a sheet pan. Sprinkle the remaining provolone cheese on top. Save the other 1/2 to bake fresh for your guests.
• Bake in the preheated oven until dip is bubbling and heated through, 20 to 25 minutes. Broil until top is browned, about 1 minute more. Repeat with the second batch of dip.

Steps:

• Start browning the sausage in a skillet, breaking it into small pieces as you would for tacos.
• Cut the cheese into cubes and throw them in the crock pot with the 2 cans of DRAINED Hot Rotel. You can go ahead and turn it on to get the melting process started.
• When the sausage is fully cooked, drain the fat and add it to the crock pot.
• Prepare yourself and your kitchen for cutting hot chillis/peppers. You do not want to touch anything that you dont need to, ESPECIALLY the cover to the crock pot, because it will get on everyone so just leave it off. Wash your hands several times afterwards.
• Chop/dice the jalapenos fairly well, and the habeneros VERY well. Add to crock pot. As long as you leave about 2 hours for the peppers to cook in the cheese, the actual pepper pieces will not be much spicier than the dip itself.
• Stir occasionally, and implement step 7 as needed.
• The salsa is a trick I use for any cheese dip. Because you've used fresh peppers and drained the rotel, the dip will be thick. The salsas primary role is thickness control. You can always thin out a dip, but it takes a long time to thicken one out. Just add a spoon full at a time until it's just right. After it sits out for a while it might need more.
• Throw in something new and let me know! I think some beans would go in nicely, or some chili.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the corn and cook, turning occasionally, until bright yellow all over and charred in spots. Alternatively, you can cook the corn on the grill. When the corn is cool enough to handle, cut the kernels off the cobs and let them cool completely.
• Meanwhile, combine the cream cheese with the sour cream, mayonnaise, 3/4 cup of the feta, the jalapeño, scallion, cumin, the 1/2 teaspoon chili powder and chopped cilantro in a large bowl. Fold the corn kernels into the dip. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with the remaining feta, cilantro leaves and chili powder. Serve with blue corn tortilla chips.

Steps:

• Chop onions and garlic, cook 5-7 minutes until soft. Add ground turkey, season with pinches of salt, cumin and chili powder. Cook additional 5-10 minutes to brown.
• Seed and mince jalapenos and habanero. Chop bell pepper. Cut corn from cob.
• Add all ingredients to Crock pot, stir to mix spices.
• Cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours.
