- 1 cup Salsa (mild, medium, or hot, based on preference)
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 2 tbsp Chopped green onions (optional, for garnish)
- 0 as needed Tortilla chips, crackers, or veggies (for serving)
Directions
Step 1
Place the cream cheese in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 20-30 seconds to soften it slightly, making it easier to mix.
Step 2
Add the sour cream to the softened cream cheese and stir until smooth and well combined.
Step 3
Pour the salsa into the bowl and gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture until evenly mixed.
Step 4
Transfer the mixture to a serving dish or shallow baking dish. Spread it evenly to create a smooth layer.
Step 5
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the dip.
Step 6
Optional: Microwave the layered dip for 30-60 seconds until the cheese is melted. Alternatively, serve it cold for a chilled dip option.
Step 7
Garnish with chopped green onions, if desired, for an extra pop of flavor and color.
Step 8
Serve immediately with tortilla chips, crackers, or fresh veggies for dipping. Enjoy!
