Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 1 cup salsa
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped green onions
- 1 bag tortilla chips
Instructions
Allow the cream cheese to soften at room temperature for about 15–20 minutes for easier spreading.
In a medium microwave-safe dish, spread the softened cream cheese evenly across the bottom using a spatula or the back of a spoon.
Pour the salsa over the cream cheese, spreading it evenly to cover the entire surface.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the salsa layer to evenly distribute it.
Place the dish in the microwave and heat on high for about 4–5 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and the dip is warmed through.
Garnish with the chopped green onions for a pop of color and added flavor.
Serve immediately with tortilla chips for dipping. Enjoy!
