Recipe of the Week - Mexican Dip


This is a recipe from another one of our own.  If you haven't logged on to Joy Vinsetta Hardin's website, you should.  It is http://thejoyofeverydaycooking.blogspot.com.   Her blog is absolutely wonderful, and she has posted some great recipes. 

We all like Mexican "stuff."  This dip with chips would be great for football tailgating.
 

Mexican Dip

2 pkg. 8 oz. cream cheese (Joy uses 1/3 less fat)
¾ cup mayo (Joy uses light)
3 T. taco seasoning
2 green onions, sliced (set aside 2 T. for topping)
1 cup diced red bell pepper
¾ cup salsa
1 garlic clove, pressed
1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 can whole kernel corn, drained

Combine cream cheese, mayo, and seasoning until smooth. Set about 1 cup aside, spread the rest on bottom of serving dish and about ½ way up sides. Slice green onions and set aside 2 T. for top. Combine green onion, red bell pepper, salsa, garlic, beans, and corn. Spread ½ of salsa mixture over cream cheese layer. Repeat both layers. Sprinkle 2 T. green onions on top.
