Author A Pleasant Little Kitchen | May 2, 2025

Author note: This recipe is easily doubled. However, instead of doubling the salt, season to taste with the salt. This dip is great for tortilla chips, tacos, nachos and chili. Other excellent additions to top the dip are pico, chopped cooked bacon and chilled chopped shrimp.
