Notes
- Cream cheese must be softened to room temperature or the dip will be lumpy. In a pinch, microwave unwrapped for 15-20 seconds.
- Use a thick, chunky salsa. Thin, watery salsas will make the dip runny - drain off excess liquid if needed.
- Stir in shredded cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a can of drained black beans to bulk it up.
- Add a squeeze of lime and a pinch of garlic powder for extra flavor, or pickled jalapeños for heat.
- Store covered in the fridge for up to 1 week. Let sit at room temp 15-20 minutes before serving. Not recommended for freezing.
