Tailgate Dip

I found this dip on Pinterest a while back, and it’s been my go-to party dip ever since.  It’s extremely easy and great to feed a large group.  I have served it with Ritz crackers, Wheat Thins, pretzels, tortilla chips, carrots, celery.  If you make it a few hours ahead of time, the tastes blend together even better!

Tailgate Dip

1 red pepper

2 jalapenos, unseeded (optional)

1 can of corn (drained)

½  can diced olives (I find it much cheaper to buy a can of regular olives and chop them in my mini-food processor.  Sometimes I'll put the whole can in the dip, too!)

 16 oz cream cheese (softened)

½ cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)

1 packet Hidden Valley Ranch dip seasoning

Mix all ingredients. Serve with crackers. Delicious!

My thoughts:  I think it might be good with something like black beans, too, Or you could change it up and add spices or swap out the Ranch packet.  Lots of possibilities!
