Ridged Potato ChipsChoose a thicker ridged chip for French onion dip. Put a little dip beside the chips and refill both during the party. Buy a second bag if the potato chips need to do double duty as a snack and a dip scoop.0
- 2
Corn Tortilla ChipsGet broad triangles or scoop-shaped chips that can carry chunky salsa. Pour about half the bag into a shallow bowl so the smaller broken pieces can stay at the bottom of the package. Put the chips between the dips to save table space.0
- 3
Hard Pretzel TwistsMini twists are easy to pinch from a dish and make a sturdier alternative to thin chips. Put out a bowl with pub mustard or serve them plain next to the heavier dips. Check the package for wheat if you have guests avoiding it.0
- 4
Bagged PopcornBuy ready-popped popcorn and serve it in cups so people can carry a portion away from the table. Open the second bag only when you need it. Plain or lightly salted popcorn leaves room for spicier chips and richer dips elsewhere in the spread.0
- 5
Jarred SalsaUse chunky salsa where you want a dip that also works with plain crackers or a vegetable tray. A small bowl with a spoon lets people portion it neatly. Open a second jar as needed and refrigerate leftovers as directed on the label.0
- 6
Jarred QuesoChoose a ready-to-eat jarred queso you can serve cold. Put it next to sturdy tortilla chips and use a low bowl so the last few scoops are easy to reach. Keep the label handy for dairy and storage information.0
- 7
French Onion DipA tub of French onion dip makes a natural partner for ridged potato chips. Set it near the vegetable tray too, so one dip can serve both bowls. Keep the spare dip refrigerated and refill with a clean bowl when the first portion runs low.0

Guacamole CupsPut individual guacamole cups on a chilled tray with corn chips. Guests can take a fresh portion, and you can keep the rest sealed and cold until needed. Small cups are especially handy when people arrive over several hours.0
- 9
Deli HummusPick a plain hummus so it can serve pita chips, carrots, and crackers at once. Check the label for sesame and keep it with the dish. Put small portions out at a time and hold the rest cold until you need a refill.0

Ready-to-Serve Bean DipLook for a ready-to-serve pinto bean dip you can spoon into a shallow dish. It’s thicker than salsa, so pair it with a wide corn chip or a sturdy pretzel. If you also have guacamole, let guests scoop from separate bowls.0
