Creamy Salsa Dip
If you like cream cheese and salsa, you’ll love this dip! Just combine a block of cream cheese and your favorite salsa in a food processor. Mix until smooth and add to a serving bowl. We love this dip with tortilla chips, potato chips, chopped veggies, or even pretzels. It’s always a hit.
And it takes just minutes to whip up! Just cut the block of cream cheese into pieces for easy blending, and add to a food processor with a steel blade. Pour in the salsa and mix for just 10 seconds. Use a spatula to scoop out every last tasty bit of that dip into an appetizer bowl and serve!
