I have never had peperoncini before, but this looks great! Thanks for sharing!
I absolutely adore all kinds of dips! I think I haven’t used peperoncini in dips before so have to give your Peperoncini Cheese Dip a try!
Dips seriously make everything better. Especially when they are homemade! I have never had peperoncini before though.
This sounds like a great dip for a party and the best part is it is easy and would come together in a pinch, particularly when you are stuck for what to bring

I’ve never known how to make cheese dip. This looks like it would be yummy.
That is such a great recipe. Just loved it. will try it for sure. thanks for sharing
This dip is sure to be a hit in my house. I will have to get the ingredients I need to make some this weekend. It looks so delicious and easy to make.
I love peperoncini but I am used to the really tiny ones. I have never seen jarred green ones. They sound intriguing. I can imagine what a nice flavour they give to the cheese dip.
Yum! This will be great for football parties this fall!

You had me at cheese. I love anything with cheese. I would even be willing to try the dip with the peperoncini even though I am not a huge fan. My hubby would love this though!
