Party dips that are served warm

I need help finding a party dip that is good and easy and is served warm. I am hosting an open house for Christmas next weekend. We are doing just appetizers, sandwich rings and desserts. I have a 3 compartment warmer that I am already putting meatballs in and then a queso for chips. I need an idea for the last compartment. Help please.TIA

1 1/2 cup fresh spinach, washed & stems removed.

1/2 cup roasted red peppers, diced

1-8 ounce pkg  cream cheese

salt & pepper to taste

 

Sauté spinach & garlic in melted butter until spinach is wilted. Add diced roasted red peppers, set aside.

In saucepan combine cream cheese and milk, cook over medium heat until hot & softened. 

Stir spinach & roasted red pepper mixture into cream cheese. Add Parmesan cheese, red pepper flakes, salt & pepper.

Spinach Artichoke Dip - sorry I don't have the recipe on me - but I'm sure you can find a good one online.

 This will give you 3 very different dips!

 Italian sausage tomato dip

½ lb of Italian sausage

½ cup of onions (chopped finely)

2 Tbls Minced Garlic

4 tomatoes ( I like Brandywines) about 4-5 Cups

½ cup water

½ Tbls Dried oregano

½ Tbls Dried Basil

½ Tbls of Sugar

Salt and Pepper to Taste

 Skin tomatoes (Cut the tops off and cut a small x in the bottom of each tomato, boil for 30 seconds and then drop in ice water. The skin will slide right off.)

Blend skinned tomatoes in food processor or blender (use the water to help blend if using a blender)

Brown sausage and onions in a skillet with the sugar and garlic. Add Oregano and basil. Mix tomato puree and meat mixture and simmer for about 20 to 25 minutes. Salt and Pepper to taste.

Serve with small slices of toasted bread. I like thin pieces of toasted French bread.

Hope this helps!
