I’ve always been a fan of a great dip. Honestly, I’m perfectly content turning a packet of onion soup mix, a tub of sour cream, and a bag of crunchy chips into a meal. After whipping up that guilty pleasure, I even enjoy licking the spoon clean.
Every family gathering I attend features a dip, and some of my fondest childhood memories are of huddling with my siblings and mom around the TV, enjoying various dips for dinner instead of a full meal.
As a huge fan of Mexican cuisine, whenever I spot a trending recipe that combines taco seasoning, cheese, and sour cream, I make it my mission to try it out ASAP.
I discovered the Boat Dip recipe while scrolling through TikTok with my daughter, always on the hunt for the latest food trends. The name comes from its convenience — it’s easy to prepare, toss in a cooler, and take on a boat.
I may not own a boat, but that didn’t stop me from gathering the ingredients. As soon as I laid eyes on this delectable dip being scooped up with Fritos, my dip cravings kicked in!
After all, there’s nothing better than enjoying a chilled sour cream-based dip with salty corn chips, whether I’m in my kitchen, at the beach, or anywhere I please.
Ingredients
- 1 package of shredded cheese (I went with extra sharp cheddar, but pepper jack would be fantastic too)
- 1 container of sour cream
- 1 can of Rotel
- 1 can of corn (optional; I skipped it to keep it less healthy)
- 1 packet of taco seasoning
Mix everything together and let it chill overnight. I have to admit, though, I couldn’t wait and dug in right away — and it was phenomenal! Chips and dip are truly my weakness, and waiting overnight would have been harder than resisting the urge to peek at my Christmas gifts.
The next morning, I gave it another try, and yes, it was even better!
My kids loved it too and suggested adding olives next time (which there will definitely be, as container one is already gone). If you frequently make tacos, this dip would be delightful spread onto a flour tortilla loaded with your favorite taco toppings.
It could also serve as a fantastic layer in a seven-layer dip, topped with diced tomatoes, olives, lettuce, and onions.
See how versatile this is? Honestly, you’d be missing out if you don’t give it a shot. I might even say this could become my new go-to dip, potentially replacing my old taco dip recipe that I always took to parties — which might be why I got invited to so many in the first place.
So next time you’re heading to a gathering, hitting the beach, or just unsure of what to whip up for dinner, try this out. You don’t need a boat for it to taste great. I can assure you, I enjoyed half the container in my kitchen this morning and felt no sense of missing out. It may be called “boat dip,” but it’s just as delicious over the kitchen sink.
