For an appetizer, I made this…. Chili Spiced Cheese Dip. It’s actually more like a cheese ball texture, so make sure you use a sturdy chip or spread it on some crackers. We liked it with corn chips. The McCormicks Gluten-Free Chili Seasoning Mix really adds a fabulous flavor to this simple recipe. My husband thought it would be awesome baked too – totally trying that next time!

Chex Mix! I miss Chex Mix. We recently got Cheerios in Germany, though. At least it’s something. 😉
And both these recipes look great! I actually bring McCormick stuff over here with me whenever I visit my parents back home.

A family fun night is a great idea! I love all of these recipes, but that Taco Snack Mix is such an awesome idea – it’s getting made today. My “starving” just-home-from-school kids will thank you 🙂
