This Caprese Dip is my new go to Summer party dip!  Great for when you need to throw together a quick app in a pinch.

Caprese Dip

Paul and I were invited to some friends house a few weeks ago and I offered to bring an appetizer but I was really short on time.  Paul wanted me to make Caprese Tartlets but I still needed to go to the market to get the ingredients and I knew I didn’t have the time to put them together.  I didn’t want to disappoint so that’s when the brilliant idea to make them into a dip popped into my head!

I’ve made this Caprese Dip for a few other parties since and it’s been a big hit every time!  I have been asked for the recipe by several people.  So here it is!  Enjoy!
