Servings: 10 servings
Ingredients
- 1 (8 oz.) Package of Philadelphia Cream Cheese
- 8 oz. of Sour Cream
- 1 Packet of Taco Seasoning
- 16 oz. of Mild Salsa
- 1 (8 oz.) Package of Monterey Jack Shredded Cheese
- 1 Small bag of Shredded Lettuce
- 2 Large Red Tomatoes diced
- 1 Small can of Black Sliced Olives
- 1-2 Handfuls Blue Tortilla Chips crushed
- 1-2 Slices American Mild Cheddar cut into star shapes
- 1 pint grape tomatoes cut in half lengthwise
Instructions
- Start by mixing the cream cheese, salsa, taco seasoning and sour cream together in a bowl with a hand mixer until smooth and no clumps.
- Then spread the mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9X13 baking dish.
- Add diced tomatoes over top of mixture, then sliced olives, followed by shredded lettuce and cheese.
- Add crushed blue tortilla chips in a square in the left hand corner. Arrange rows of sliced grape tomatoes to create alternating red and white stripes resembling the American flag.
- Finish off by adding cheese stars made from a star shaped cookie cutter on top of the blue tortilla chips.
- Chill in the fridge for 1-2 hours. Serve and enjoy!
Notes
Cover or store the dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. It's best to eat the leftovers sooner than later as the lettuce tends to wilt and the layers get watery.
