Either way they are all quick and easy to make. So if you are wondering what kind of dip to make, then you have come to the right place. We are sharing our 20 best and most popular dip recipes including cheesy dips, salsas, all the hummus (we might have a bit of an obsession), and more!

How to Make Ahead and Store Dip
You can make or prepare most of these savory dip recipes ahead of time. You can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week (depending on the reicpe) or evne in the freezer for up to 3 months (hummus freezes well!). Confirm storing instructions by checking each recipe.
To reheat any of the warm dips, you can reheat in a 300F preheated oven or air fryer for 5-15 minutes until fully warmed through. I would check on it every 5 minutes until ready. Some dips can also be reheated on the stove over medium-low heat until warmed through.
