From chunky salsa to smooth French onion, a flavorful dip and crisps chips go together like salt and pepper, making them canon to every host. But, if you want to give this dynamic duo some extra oomph, might we recommend picking up a designated chip and dip bowl? Not only will this clever addition elevate any spread — yes, even those that include store-bought dips — but they’ll also help keep mess to a minimum.
