This is actually a really good dip - but I make it a bit differently. I don't "layer" it, the cream cheese might overwhelm the salsa. Instead I mix the cream cheese and salsa together. You can do this by microwave or on low heat, simmering, on the stove. I omit the cheddar cheese. Now, this can be served one of two ways. It's GREAT hot and creamy, or you can serve it cool - which means you're dealing with the cream-cheese's original consistency, only with salsa. I think either is great. Good recipe.

I myself won't eat beans, and I love this recipe. However, I did make a few changes. I use lean ground beef (hardly any grease to drain) and season it with plenty of onions and garlic before I put it in with the other ingredients. I also add green peppers and red onions, the extra veggies add a nice touch in the absence of beans. I also found that it gives the chili a little more flavor. Yum!

This is an excellent recipe (in my family for years - we called them polish roses), with so many variations! The one thing I do add to my "polish roses" or "roll ups" is that I mix in a packet of hidden valley ranch in with the cream cheese. It's good for an extra kick.
