Ingredients for Jalapeno Dip
This wonderful dip just takes a few ingredients.
Cream Cheese – Use the whipped variety in a tub. I used a lower fat variety and it worked great.
Mayonnaise – Use your favorite brand.
Jalapeño peppers – Use the canned, presliced variety.
Green Chili – again I use canned. Generic brands work great.
Parmesan Cheese – Shred it yourself, it tastes so much better than pre-shredded cheese.

Ooh yum, sounds great! I am a huge wimp when it comes to spicy things; somehow I’ve managed to go all 25 years of my life without really ever even trying anything spicy, and of course the downside now is that even the mildest things taste SUPER spicy to me because I’m not used to any spice. Oops. But this would probably be good without the jalapenos, my hubs can have mine cuz he really likes spicy things 🙂 Thanks for sharing at The Fun In Functional!
LOL Jessi! The trick is to gradually add spice in your life (or not). Thanks for stopping by!
