Ruffles + French Onion Dip

with both Guac and Roasted Red Pepper Hummus

Also love pita chips w/ hummus, babaganoush and whipped feta w/ olive tapenade.

I take a softened package of cream cheese and mix it with some salsa. I only add salsa and nothing else to the cream cheese. I don't measure the salsa because I always go by the consistency, I don't like it too thick or too runny. I pour the mixture into a casserole dish and top it off with Mexican shredded cheese. I don't, but other people will add diced green onions and diced tomato after adding the shredded cheese to make it look pretty. It's going into my mouth so I don't care if it looks "pretty". BTW, this chip dip is addicting and this could be made with sour cream instead of cream cheese, it depends on the cooks preferences.


Here's a general recipe and a photo to make your mouth water.

1 package cream cheese softened
