Salsa's great served alone with chips, but mixing and heating it with cream cheese makes a wonderfully warm dip!

Expert Tips

Vary the amount of "heat" in this dip by purchasing mild, medium or hot salsa or picante sauce.

This dip is easy to microwave. Place cream cheese and salsa in 1-quart microwavable casserole. Microwave uncovered on High 3 to 5 minutes, stirring every minute, until cheese is melted.

Make this appetizer colorful for the holidays. Surround the dip with red and green tortilla chips.

I loved this dip! I made it for camp and everyone loved it and I had to make more the next night. I served it cold and added fine shredded taco cheese. But someone suggested ground beef... any thoughts?

This recipe is one that I've made for many years and it's excellent. Just a couple tips: 1. Same ingredients served cold (no heating necessary) is excellent. 2. Also, when I first made this recipe (1980) I put tiny shrimp (already cooked) in and mixed it with the salsa/cream cheese..no heating, just mix and serve cold.
