Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 8 oz Cream cheese (softened)
  • 1 cup Sour cream
  • 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
  • 2 cup Sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 3 stalks Green onions (thinly sliced)
  • 0.75 cup Salsa (mild or medium)
  • 2 tablespoon Taco seasoning mix store-bought or homemade
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh lime juice
  • 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro (chopped)
  • 1 ea Jalapeño (seeded and finely chopped) optional for heat

Instructions
 

Preparation Steps

  • In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth using a hand mixer or stand mixer.
  • Add sour cream and mayonnaise. Mix until fully combined and creamy.
  • Stir in taco seasoning, garlic powder and fresh lime juice until evenly distributed.
  • Fold in shredded cheddar, green onions, cilantro and chopped jalapeño. Mix gently to combine.
  • Add salsa and stir just until swirled through the mixture — leave some streaks for texture.
  • Transfer to a serving bowl. Chill for at least 30 minutes to let flavors meld, or serve immediately with tortilla chips and fresh vegetables.

Notes

Make ahead and refrigerate up to 24 hours. Bring to room temperature before serving for best flavor. Keeps 3-4 days covered in the fridge.
