My family and friends love this dip. As soon as I set it down, it seems to disappear. A great dish to bring to a potluck. I like to use a mix of red, orange and yellow bell peppers, because my husband doesn't like the green. I use Italian tomatoes because they aren't as juicy, but any would work. And, I vary the shredded cheese. I like using the Cracker Barrel Mexicana mix that's already shredded. This is a great recipe to play around with, because any combinations will work.

How To Make homemade salsa taco dip

  • Step 1
    Place the cream cheese in an 8" x 8" pyrex dish. Soften the cream cheese by heating in the microwave for about 30 seconds, depending on strength of your microwave.
  • Step 2
    Add the same amount of mayo (the ½ cup) to the cream cheese in the pyrex and mix. Spread it around the dish as evenly as you can. The veggies will be layered on top.
  • Step 3
    Now start the layering. Start with the peppers. Layer avocado on top of peppers. Tomato on top of avocado.
  • Step 4
    Spread the salsa sauce over the veggies. Cover with shredded cheese. Chill well.
  • Step 5
    Serve with taco chips.
