Cobb Salad Dip

Yes, you read that right.  Cobb Salad Dip. It's like Cobb Salad but even better.  I made this last weekend for a few of my girlfriends that came over while the guys were fishing.  We demolished the dip.  It is full of so many fresh flavors.  I picked up my corn and tomatoes at the Farmers Market and they were perfectly ripe and sweet.  You could also add an avocado to this but I was worried it would brown if we had dip leftover.  This is the perfect end of Summer dip!

Enjoy!

Recipe adapted via Lemon Tree Dwelling

- 1 8oz package cream cheese

- 1 8 oz sour cream

- 1 package Hidden Valley Ranch Dip mix

- 3 ears of corn

- cherry tomatoes

- shredded sharp cheddar cheese.

- shredded romaine lettuce

- 3 green onions sliced

- cooked and crumbled bacon

- crumbled blue cheese

- salt and pepper

- tortilla chips or ruffles for dipping

Let cream cheese sit out and soften about an hour.  Mix cream cheese, sour cream, and ranch packet.  Spread in the bottom of any dish- I used a round one that I use for my tomato pie and quiche but any dish would work.  I bake the corn at 350 degrees about 10 minutes just to slightly soften it but you don't have to cook it.

Layer shredded cheese and the rest of the ingredients.  I like to end with the blue cheese and bacon. Serve with tortilla chips.

Scenes From Our Weekend

Lots of fun stuff this weekend.

First of all I finally found two matching tufted cane back chairs for our den.  I had been searching for a pair for awhile.  These are in execellent condition and the fabric actually matches our rug!  I was beyond excited.  Thanks to Rust Charleston (they have a booth at the Mount Pleasant Mall).  Liz gets in the best vintage stuff, check her out if you are local.

Friday night we went to party at the yacht club, but enjoyed a glass of wine outside before we left.

Wearing Topshop Dress

 We got to watch the storm roll in.  It was beautiful.  Then we had to high tail it home since we were on our golf cart.

Sterling always has the best time there with his friends.

Saturday the kids and hit up the Farmers Market while Matt fished in a fishing tournament.

I had the best breakfast | Green Garden Juice + Soba noodles with pork and a fried egg.

I got the most beautiful bouqet of flowers along with some delicious produce.

Saturday afternoon we met up with some friends and headed back to the Yacht to see how Matt and is friend Andy did in the fishing tournament.

Wearing Off Shoulder Vince Camuto Blouse (40% off) + shorts.

The weather was not the best for fishing, it was super windy and really rough so sadly Matt did not win.  We had a fun evening anyways.

We could not stop laughing about our photo bomber in the back.  We had no idea who he was or that he was in our picture until we looked at them.

Sterling and his lady love, Julia.

Sunday morning was brunch at Hot Little Biscuit.

The grits are amazing.  It was my first time trying them.  I added pimento cheese, roasted tomatoes, and green onions- so good!

One out of two kids looking at the camera is a win.

Romper is old ASOS

Ended the weekend with homemade Smores Ice Cream sandwiches.  The recipe is the new Real Simple Magazine.

I can't believe Summer is over in 3 weeks.  Savoring time with these little ones.

Have a great Monday!
