Chili is a big hit at my house. This year there will be Pizza soup (recipe is posted  about 6 posts below on this forum). Someplace on here I found a recipe for Oh **** dip - I've already made that and it's so good. Whe I find it again I'll give proper credit to the poster but it goes like this:

Cream Cheese (softened)
****tail Sauce
2 cans tiny shrimp (rinsed & drained)
grated cheese
diced scallions (for garnish)

spread cream cheese in dish. Top with ****tail sauce. Cover with shrimp. Sprinkle on grated cheese and garnish with scallions if desired.  Serve with crackers, pita chips or crisps.

OMG - it is so good.

I got this recipe years ago from BariatricEating.com:

It is really good and people in my family who don't usually like Blue Cheese like this dip.

BLUE CHEESE & BACON DIP

Vegetable cooking spray
One 8-ounce pkg. reduced-fat cream cheese
1/2 cup fat-free Half & Half
7 slices turkey bacon, crispy cooked and crumbled
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 ounces crumbled Blue cheese
2 tablespoons chopped chives
2 tablespoons chopped green onion (or 4 tablespoons, if not using chives)
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
3 tablespoons sliced almonds

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat a 1-quart casserole dish with vegetable cooking spray. In a large bowl beat the softened cream cheese with Half & Half. Stir in bacon, garlic, blue cheese, chives and green onion and pepper, Pour into prepared casserole dish and bake for 20 minutes. Sprinkle almonds over the top and continue baking for 10 minutes more. Allow to cool slightly and serve with vegetables, apple and pear slices,....and for your family, whole grain crackers or crostini. Makes 10 servings.
