Sandi’s surprise dip

Makes: 3 dinner plates (dip), per plate (toppings)

Ingredients for the dip:

  • 1 250 g package light cream cheese
  • 2/3 cup fat-free sour cream
  • 1/4 cup light mayonnaise

Ingredients for the topping:

  • 3/4 cup chunky salsa (heat of your choice)
  • 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, grated
  • 1/3 green pepper, diced
  • 1-2 Roma tomatoes, diced
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped (green and white parts)

Method:

Beat together the cream cheese, sour cream and mayonnaise in a small bowl. I use electric beaters. Divide in 3 and store in separate containers in refrigerator until it’s time to serve.

When preparing the plate, spread 1/3 of the base all over a dinner plate. Grate cheese, dice green pepper and tomato, and finely chop green onion.

Layer toppings evenly over base in this order: salsa, cheese, green pepper, tomato and green onion.

The base stores in the refrigerator until you are ready to finish it up with the toppings. Keeps in refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.
