I started to write this post with a bowl full of leftover dip in front of me. Needless to say, the post did not progress until I had completely devoured every last bite! This recipe is just the right amount of creamy and spicy. It's absolutely delicious (even left over). This makes quite a bit of dip, but it could easily be frozen and reheated later. Enjoy!
