Cranberry Jalapeño Dip Tasty and Simple Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 cup fresh cranberries (or frozen, thawed)
• 1 jalapeño, seeded and finely chopped
• 8 oz cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 4 mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 4 green onions, chopped (for garnish)
• Tortilla chips or crackers for serving

Instructions

1. Rinse the cranberries under cold water, ensuring you remove any discolored ones. If using frozen cranberries, ensure they are completely thawed and drained.
2. In a food processor, combine cranberries and chopped jalapeño. Pulse until the mixture is chunky but well mixed (about 5-7 pulses).
3. In a mixing bowl, add the softened cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, lime juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Whip with a hand mixer or fork until smooth and creamy.
4. Fold the cranberry and jalapeño mixture into the cream cheese mixture until thoroughly combined. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt, pepper, or lime juice if desired.
5. Transfer the dip to a serving bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld.
6. Before serving, garnish with chopped green onions.
