This dip is so simple and easy. I doubled it for a large party and it was a big hit. I did stir in some cheddar into the creamcheese just for some color. I topped it with sliced black olives and cheddar again just for presentation and color, served it with triscuits and it was a fast, easy and simple dish.

I've been making a very similar taco dip for years. The only difference is I add an 8 ounce container of sour cream. I also just spread the salsa on top, then the cheese.

Thanks for the dip! I make one similar to this but I use sour cream, salsa, onions, peppers, salt, shredded cheese. I am going to try yours now, we'll see which I like better!

This is so easy and so good. I used hot and spicy taco seasoning mix, more hot salsa and topped with black olives. Next time I'm going to add green onions.

Made this last night for a potluck. I made a double batch and it was gone in minutes! I topped with black olive slices and chopped green pepper. Served with jalapeno tortilla chips. Thanks for the tasty, easy and cheap recipe!

This was definitely an easy dip to make and very good. I used regular taco mix and mild salsa, adding a little bit more of each and it was flavorful enough for me, who is not a fan of super spicy foods. I should have used a bigger container to put the dip into as it was a bit too 'thick' and would have been better spread out more. It disappeared quick at the meeting I took it to. Will definately make again!!

Holy moly, this is yummy! What a surprise hit, and for so little effort! I read through the reviews and made a few tweaks, but nothing big. I used more taco seasoning to taste (about 2 tsp of the top taco mix on this website), increased the salsa to 1/2 cup, added 1/4 cup plain yogurt (sour cream would work), mixed in some of the shredded cheddar, and used less than the 8oz called for. Thank you for such a great recipe! Delicious and easy.
