Ingredients

• For the dip:
  • 1 cup ketchup
  • 2 tbsp Sriracha sauce
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder

Instructions

1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of ketchup and 2 tbsp of Sriracha sauce. Tip: Adjust the amount of Sriracha based on your heat preference.
2. Add 1 tbsp of honey to the mixture to balance the heat with a touch of sweetness.
3. Sprinkle in 1 tsp of garlic powder and 1 tsp of onion powder for an extra layer of flavor. Tip: Fresh minced garlic can be used for a more pungent taste.
4. Whisk all the ingredients together until fully combined. Tip: Let the dip sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

Here’s the thing about this dip—it’s not just about the heat. The honey adds a subtle sweetness that makes it incredibly addictive, while the garlic and onion powders give it a depth of flavor that’s hard to resist. Try it with sweet potato fries for a delightful contrast.

Sweet and Tangy Ketchup Dip

Whenever I’m hosting a game night or just craving something quick and delicious, this Sweet and Tangy Ketchup Dip is my go-to. It’s a crowd-pleaser that’s incredibly easy to whip up, and the best part? You probably have most of the ingredients in your pantry already.

Ingredients

• For the dip:
  • 1 cup ketchup
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp smoked paprika

Instructions

1. In a medium saucepan, combine the ketchup, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika over medium heat.
2. Whisk the ingredients together until the brown sugar has completely dissolved, about 2-3 minutes. Tip: Keep the heat at medium to prevent the sugar from burning.
3. Once the sugar has dissolved, reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Tip: Simmering helps the flavors meld together beautifully.
4. After simmering, remove the saucepan from the heat and let the dip cool for about 5 minutes before serving. Tip: The dip thickens as it cools, so don’t worry if it seems a bit thin at first.

Ultimate comfort in a bowl, this dip strikes the perfect balance between sweet and tangy with a hint of smokiness. Serve it warm with crispy fries, onion rings, or even as a unique glaze for grilled meats.

Creamy Avocado Ketchup Dip

After countless backyard barbecues and potlucks, I’ve realized that the right dip can turn good moments into great ones. That’s why I’m obsessed with this Creamy Avocado Ketchup Dip—it’s the perfect blend of creamy, tangy, and just a little bit unexpected.

• For the dip:
  • 2 ripe avocados, peeled and pitted
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 1/4 cup sour cream

  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

1. In a medium bowl, mash the avocados with a fork until smooth.
2. Add the ketchup, sour cream, lime juice, garlic powder, and salt to the bowl. Tip: For extra creaminess, make sure your avocados are perfectly ripe—they should yield slightly to gentle pressure.
3. Stir all the ingredients together until well combined. Tip: If you prefer a chunkier texture, leave some small avocado pieces unmashed.
4. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld. Tip: This dip tastes even better the next day, so feel free to make it ahead of time.

How this dip transforms simple chips or veggies into something extraordinary is nothing short of magic. The creamy avocado pairs surprisingly well with the tangy ketchup, creating a dip that’s both familiar and exciting. Try serving it with sweet potato fries for a delightful contrast in flavors.
