Makeover - How We Did It

We've taken a favourite appetizer and made it over by preparing it with black beans instead of guacamole and using Philadelphia Light Brick Cream Cheese Spread, Kraft Double Cheddar Shredded Cheese Light - Made with 2% Milk and baked tortilla chips in place of regular products.

I made this for a summer party on the long weekend. I made my own salsa for it and served with blue corn tortillas. Everyone loved it, it was inhaled!

I usually make a dip like htis with avocados, but it's great if there aren't any ripe avocados.

I make this a lot in the summer. We don't use olives. I have used fajita seasoning also. Very good, will make this one for a long time!!!!!
