Ingredients

• Mission® Thin & Crispy Tortilla Chips, 9 oz
• 2 sticks of cream cheese softened
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 1 pouch taco seasoning
• Toppings:
• 2 cups shredded lettuce
• 1 1/2 cups assorted tomatoes, sliced in half
• 1 green bell pepper, diced
• 1/4-1/2 jalapeño, optional
• 1/2 cup pitted black olives, sliced

Instructions

1. In a bowl, add softened cream cheese, sour cream, and mild taco seasoning. Using electric mixture, if possible, combine all the ingredients together until it is smooth in texture.
2. Transfer the mixture to the serving dish and add all desirable toppings, preferably fresh.
3. I used toppings that we usually add to our tacos, so it made perfect sense to add lettuce, tomatoes, bell pepper, jalapeño and black olives and serve it with our favorite restaurant-style Mission Thin & Crispy Tortilla Chips.
4. Keep the dip cold before serving.

Notes

• Refrigerate dip if you are not going to serve it right away.
• For the best taste, use whole milk dairy products.
• Use fresh ingredients for the toppings, as they are preferably the best to make this dip colorful and at the same time, beautiful and tasty.
• You may make your own taco seasoning.
• Add more Sour cream if needed
• Fast way to bring cream cheese to room temperature: Take the cheese block out of the paper carton package, then unopened cheese, place in the warm, almost hot water for about 5 minutes.
