really good, kinda sweet...reccomend eating it right away or it can get soggy.

Great recipe!! To change the flavor a bit I added 1 envelope of taco seasoning to the cream cheese and dressing...was fantastic!

Had to add more salsa as the cream cheese overpowered the dip...could be that I didn't mix it well enough. Still very good and a big hit!

This is a great tortilla chip dip. Very hearty and a great substitute for a meal if you aren't that hungry. Everyone in my house loved it and there are 8 of us here.

This is fast and easy to make. I just chilled and served with tortilla chips. The dish was empty at the end of the party!! And the kids like it as a treat.

I find that once the base is done, the skys the limit! How about the cream cheese base then spread on seafood sauce, chopped crab meat and baby shrimp and shredded mozza? Or cream cheese base, salsa, canned black beans, chopped lettuce and tomatoes and tex mex cheese? Just a few thoughts

I have used this recipe before but have added ground beef with taco seasoning on top the salsa layer.
