Why spend a fortune on mediocre store-bought dips when you can make
your own tantalizing party spreads in less than 10 seconds, and for a
fraction of the price. Each of these dips has been selected for flavor,
popularity and ease. Go ahead and call some friends, it’s time to throw a
Bullet Bash!
Seven-Second Salsa
No party is complete without salsa! This chunky, delicious blend is a
flavor fiesta. Your guests will be talking about it for weeks to come!
1-2 boiler onions or 1/4 of a regular sized onion (about 1/4 cup)
1/6 to 1/4 of a jalapeno pepper
8-10 cherry tomatoes or 1 regular size tomato (about 1/2 cup)
1-2 cloves garlic
small sprigs of cilantro (optional)
salt and pepper to taste
First … Place all ingredients, in the order they are listed, into the Tall
Cup. (You may have to cut the tomatoes a bit, depending on the size you
choose.)
Then … Twist on the Cross Blade and place the cup onto the Power
Base.
Next … Give it several quick Pulses. Salsa should be chunky, so be
careful not to over-process it. Remember to apply a bit of counter-clock-
wise pressure to the cup to keep it from Locking On (See Pulse
technique on Page 17).
Repeat the quick Pulse technique ... until you achieve a blended yet
chunky texture.
When you pour your fresh salsa in a bowl, you may notice the
power of the Magic Bullet has made it a little foamy. Don’t panic
— the foam is actually tiny air bubbles that go away after a few
minutes. If it bothers you, lay a paper towel down on top of the salsa and
gently blot … no more foam. Also, when you make salsa with a knife,
you typically seed the tomatoes first. Since we’re throwing the tomatoes
in whole, there may be more juice than you’re used to. If so, just twist on
the Shaker/Steamer Top and strain out some of the extra liquid.
Serve your salsa with tortilla chips, slices of Italian bread, or as
a dip for triangles of quesadilla (see recipe Page 45).
Chunkier Salsa
For even chunkier salsa, after you’re done Pulsing, stir in some
canned (drained) black beans and a bit of canned corn — a
fiesta for the taste buds!
Hallelujah Hummus
We love hummus because it’s so rich and creamy! This traditional Greek
delicacy can be served as a dip or a side dish.
1⁄4 cup chicken (or vegetable) stock
14 oz. can chickpeas (garbanzo beans),drained
3 cloves garlic
2 Tbs. lemon juice
3 Tbs. tahini (sesame paste)
First … Add all ingredients into the
Tall Cup.
Next … Twist on the Cross Blade and
blend until smooth.
Then … Salt and pepper to taste.
