Scale

Dip Ingredients

  • 16 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/3 cup tamed jalapeños, drained and chopped
  • 1/3 cup roasted red peppers, drained and chopped
  • 1 cup shredded white cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Combine cream cheese and mayonnaise: In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and mayonnaise together until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  2. Add seasonings: Stir in the garlic powder, onion powder, and salt to evenly distribute the flavors throughout the mixture.
  3. Fold in vegetables and cheese: Gently fold in the chopped jalapeños, roasted red peppers, and shredded white cheddar cheese until everything is fully combined.
  4. Chill the dip: Refrigerate the mixture for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together and the dip to firm up slightly.
  5. Serve: Serve the chilled dip with your choice of crackers, pretzels, or fresh veggie sticks for dipping and enjoying.

Notes

  • For a spicier kick, use fresh jalapeños instead of tamed.
  • Make sure to soften the cream cheese well for easier mixing.
  • This dip can be prepared a day ahead and refrigerated to deepen the flavors.
  • Use low-fat mayonnaise for a lighter version of the dip.
  • Best served chilled but bring to room temperature for 10 minutes before serving for easier scooping.
