It's a tasty, easy to make dip! Changing it up every time is a lot of fun too. I've used green onions and cilantro before, and both were great!

I added taco seasoning to the cream cheese and once used ground beef, and another time, seasoned chicken and served this as a warm appetizer. It's now a regular request for bbqs and football parties.
