Recipe Fridays: Taco Dip


With the Super Bowl just around the corner, appetizers and hand foods are on everyone's minds. Instead of the usual Super Bowl hot wings, french fries, and other greasy hand foods, I've got a more chips and dip approach this year. This Taco Dip was a staple at practically every function my sorority held. And it was gone within minutes. I know there are several variations of this recipe, but here's mine:
1 package cream cheese
1 8 oz container sour cream
1 packet of Taco seasoning
Lettuce, shredded
Tomatoes, chopped or diced
Grated cheddar cheese
Optional: avacado, salsa, black olives
Mix cream cheese and sour cream together in a bowl (I usually add half the sour cream and taste test before adding the whole container). Then add the taco seasoning. Mix well. Spread mixture onto a cookie sheet (or round plate). Top with lettuce, tomatoes, and cheese (as well as any other toppings you might like to add). Serve with tortilla chips.

  1. Yummm... I like to put a layer of beans on mine as welll...Just heat and mash a can of red or black beans (pour out most of the liquid) and season to taste with cumin, hot sauce, coriander, garlic, and salt.
