It's a Virtual Baby Shower and I'm bringing a Cobb Dip #FoodieExtravaganza

This dip is the perfect appetizer for any occasion.  It is quick, easy, delicious and even gives you some vegetables. It is like a Cobb Salad on a cracker.

The Foodie Extravaganza gang is having a Virtual Baby Shower.....

Foodie Extravaganza is a fun group that normally gets together to celebrate Food Holidays.  This month our celebration is a little different.  I will let our host, Stacy of Food Lust People Love, explain:

The founder of Foodie Extravaganza, Lauren, is having a baby! She doesn't blog anymore but she does raise cattle and take amazing portraits which keep her very busy. You can check out her photography work here: https://www.laurengoehringphotography.com/ It's wonderful and I am so proud of her! Anyhoo, this event is to celebrate the birth of baby Goehring, much wanted and hard gotten. I'll update this when he/she is born. They don't want to know before.

Since this invitation was written Lauren and her husband have welcomed a gorgeous baby girl into their world.  We are so very happy for all 3 of them.

I decided to make an appetizer to bring to this celebration.  Let's see what the others have brought to the table........

• Classic Carol Chicken Salad from Palatable Pastime
• Cobb Dip from A Day in the Life on the Farm
• Coconut Filled Tartlets - East Indian from Sneha's Recipe
• Melon Prosciutto Chevre Salad with Mint Dressing from Food Lust People Love
• Pink and Blue Sandwich Cake Cookies from Our Good Life 
• Red Velvet Cupcakes from Passion Kneaded
• Toasted Sesame Seed Crackers from Karen's Kitchen Stories
• Tortilla Taco Cups from Magical Ingredients

I adapted this recipe from one found at Lemon Tree Dwelling.  The original recipe called for grilled corn....it's not corn season nor grilling season here right now so I omitted that.  I also left off the blue cheese crumbles because, while I'm a huge fan, my guests may not be.  I served the crumbles on the side for those who wanted them.
