excellent recipe! i usually serve this dip hot with fresh tortilla chips. i mix the salsa and cream cheese together and 1/2 the grated cheese. i then put it into a medium sized ramekin and then sprinkle the rest of the cheese on top. bake it until the cheese is melty and serve immediately. sooooooooo good! -
I think I allowed too much of the "juicy" part of the salsa to get into it, because it was a little runny for me. But the taste was great! -
Hello Donna M, I could use some more of that right now! It was delicious and went so well with crudites(celery, radishes, carrots, broccoli, & cauliflower). I doubled the recipe and served it with Japanese vegetable chips, too. Thanks for making me look so good, Diane :=) -
I love this dip! I had been looking for a recipe for a "Mexicali dip" that I buy and this is really close. I will make it with a "medium" salsa next time. -
