For a plate of this dip, you'll need:
- one (8oz package) of room temperature cream cheese
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons of mild taco seasoning mix
- 3/4 cup mild salsa
- 1/2 green pepper (or whatever colour you have on hand)
- 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
1) Combine the room temperature cream cheese with the sour cream and mild taco seasoning mix. {I like to use a potato masher, and then a spoon.}
2) Spread the cream cheese/sour cream mixture onto a large plate or platter, and then cover with mild salsa, green pepper, and grated cheddar cheese.
3) Chill in fridge until ready to serve.
That's it! To make a large platter, you can double the recipe. (I often do this if I know there is going to be a crowd.)
Serve this dip with a bowl of nacho chips, and I guarantee there won't be any leftovers to take home.
What is your favorite appetizer recipe? I am always looking for new "tried and true" favourites.

Sounds yummy! I also make a nacho dip but use a can of black beans to layer on top of the cream cheese/sour cream mixture.
ReplyDeleteOnce you have the cream cheese/sour cream layer, you can add anything! :-)
DeleteOne of our favs is Thai hamburger dip!
ReplyDeleteMix 1 block cream cheese and 3/4 cup sour cream together (I use a hand mixer with whisk attachments) and spread on bottom of 8x8 dish.
Cook small package hamburger with 1/2 diced onion until well done, drain. Stir in 3/4-1 jar sweet Thai chili sauce and mix - layer on top of cream cheese mixture. Sprinkle with grated marble cheese. Bake at 375 for 25 mins. Soooooo good.
