If you ask us, whipping up tasty food is the best way to welcome a new season. After all, there's nothing better than enjoying fresh flavors mixed into delicious homemade dishes. The best part? You don't need to be a pro to make it happen. With our trio of simple dip recipes—watermelon feta mint dip, Maine lobster dip and campfire s'mores dip—you can easily embrace the arrival of summer.

We'll kick things off with watermelon feta dip, a refreshing sweet and salty salsa that's perfect for summer parties. It's a great partner for tortilla chips, but you can serve it with meat or tacos as well. Our Maine lobster dip is inspired by (surprise!) Maine lobster rolls. It's a creamy, satisfying dip made with lobster meat, lemon juice and chopped celery, making it an ideal partner for crudités and potato chips alike.

For a sweet finish, we'll walk you through campfire s'mores dip. It's a gooey, layered concoction made of chocolate chips and marshmallows and topped with trail mix. The result is a mouthwatering dip that both kids and adults will love. Whether you're hosting game day, a barbecue or a pool party soirée, you'll want to add these easy dip recipes to your summer to-do list.

Let's dig in!

In a small bowl, whisk together red wine vinegar, olive oil and salt.

In a large bowl, combine watermelon, cucumber, red onion, feta cheese and chopped mint leaves. Toss gently.

Add the red vinegar mixture and then toss to combine.

Your fresh summer appetizer is ready for dipping. Serve watermelon feta mint salsa with a slotted spoon, which will allow excess liquid to drain. In addition to tortilla chips, try this dip with pita chips and potato chips. So good!

In a large bowl, combine cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, lemon juice, onion powder and salt. It might help to use a large fork to break up the cream cheese. Mix well.

To the bowl, add chopped lobster meat and diced celery. Mix with a spatula until combined and then taste and add more salt and pepper as needed.

Top with chopped chives if desired. You can also use green onions and freshly chopped herbs, such as dill or parsley. Serve this appetizer recipe cold with potato chips or fresh veggies.

Preheat the oven to 450°F. Grease a baking dish or mini cast iron pan with melted butter.

Add chocolate chips in an even single layer.

Add a layer of marshmallows on top.

Bake until the marshmallows are toasted, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove it from the oven and then top with trail mix.

Serve with graham crackers immediately.

Now that you're up to speed on our trio of summer dips, it's time to start planning your next get-together! With these recipes in hand, you'll have plenty of happy guests—and empty dip bowls.
