I added 8 oz sour cream to this and doubled the salsa. It turned out good, except I added too much taco seasoning for my taste. Everyone ate it up, so I guess it wasn't too strong for my guests. Next time I'll go easier on the seasoning.

I thought since this was an easy recipe that it would be good but I am sorry this was a little bland for my taste. It wasn't nothing truly in it to give it an unique taste. I made it for a party and I am glad I made a small batch. It didn't go over that well and I brought some home. I will not be making this one again.

Excellent and extremely to make. Looks kinda blah but tastes amazing. Black Olives would add nicely for both taste and appearance.

This was an absolute hit at my work. I normally have to make double because it goes so fast. You can also use low-fat or fat-free cream cheese. It doesn't change the taste.... and those that refuse to eat low-fat will never know!

I love it! And so easy to make. I already had most of the ingredients around the house, making it a great appetizer to throw together in a pinch! I actually used triscits as my "chip" and it was a hit!

This is a recipe my mother had given to me a long time ago, it's great because you can make tons of adjustments to it as desired. You can add a layer of guacamole or kick it up a notch with spicy salsa but it will still be loved even if you just do the basics. No one will be able to resist.

Another favorite of my and everyone who has tried it. I have made this twice. The first time I used half fat free and half 1/3 less fat cream cheese. It was great both ways. I going to make this again.
