Ingredients
- 2 packages (8 ounces each) whipped cream cheese
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 package McCormick® Creamy Jalapeno Spinach Dip Seasoning Mix
- 1 1/2 cups finely chopped assorted veggies, such as broccoli florets, bell peppers and green onions
Each ingredient plays an important role in creating the dip’s creamy texture and fresh flavor. Whipped cream cheese makes a smooth base that is easy to mix, while sour cream adds a creamy consistency. The seasoning mix provides the jalapeño and spinach-inspired flavor, and the chopped vegetables add color, texture, and a fresh bite.
For the best texture, finely chop your vegetables so they mix evenly throughout the dip. You can use a combination of broccoli florets, bell peppers, and green onions as suggested in the recipe.
Instructions
Mix cream cheese, sour cream and Seasoning Mix in large bowl until well blended. Add veggies, stirring until well blended.
Refrigerate 1 hour. Serve with dippers such as sliced French bread, crackers, cut up veggies, pita or tortilla chips.
Chilling the dip for one hour is an important step. It gives the mixture time to firm up slightly and allows the seasoning and other ingredients to blend together. The result is a creamy dip with a more balanced flavor.
Before serving, give the dip a gentle stir if needed. Arrange your favorite dippers around the bowl so everyone can easily enjoy it. It works especially well on appetizer tables, holiday spreads, and casual gatherings.
Test Kitchen Tip: Serve in a bread bowl or individual rolls as mini bread bowls for an easy party dip.
A bread bowl makes this appetizer look inviting and gives guests an easy way to enjoy the dip. Individual rolls are another convenient option, especially when serving at parties or gatherings where guests can grab their own mini bread bowl.
This Creamy Jalapeño Veggie Dip is an easy make-ahead appetizer that saves time when preparing for guests. You can mix it ahead of your gathering, refrigerate it, and serve it when needed. Keep any leftover dip covered in the refrigerator and use clean serving utensils to maintain its freshness.
