Notes
- The cream cheese should be softened before mixing it into the dip. To do this, either let the cream cheese sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes, or microwave the cream cheese for 20-30 seconds.
- I recommend you allow the dip to chill for 30 minutes before serving. As the dip sits in the refrigerator, all of the ingredients begin to meld together. The flavors are enhanced and you’ll get delicious results, even hours after the dip is made!
- Store this southwest dip in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 7 days.
- I do not recommend freezing the dip, as sour cream does not freeze well. The dairy will separate when frozen and the texture will not be the same once the dip is defrosted.
- This recipe is gluten free using the ingredients shown above. If purchasing premade southwest seasoning, or taco seasoning, always check the label to make sure it’s gluten free.
