White Cheese Mexican Dip

I made this dip to snack on, and it was delicious. The recipe comes from a Vera Bradley cookbook (recipe from Vera's granddaughter, Amy Byrne Ray), and she says that every time she makes this someone always asks for the recipe. I couldn't stop snacking on these because I thought it was so good. Aubrey didn't want to try it because it has cottage cheese in it.... but I loved it. I put extra green onions in it because I love the taste.

Ingredients:
2 cups sour cream
16 ounces cottage cheese
8 ounces grated pepper-jack cheese
1 bunch green onions, sliced
1/2 jalapeno chile, minced, or Tabasco sauce, to taste (I used the jalapeno)

Directions:
Combine the sour cream, cottage cheese, pepper-jack cheese, and green onions and mix well. Add the jalapeno chile and mix well. Serve with tortilla corn chips.

Meg said...: I'm kindda like Aubrey in that I probably wouldn't have made this with the cottage cheese in it, even though I love cottage cheese (with fruit or tomatoes!). If you say it's good, I'll trust you! I may even try it! :-)

"Food" for thought

Being a Christian is much like cooking. There are several circumstances that we have been through (good & bad), & that's what has made us who we are. Speaking in "cooking" terms, there are several ingredients that go into the recipe (some taste good alone, and some don't). How many of us would swallow a TBSP of ground cumin? BUT when this ingredient is added with other ingredients, it makes for a perfect dish. Just like all of the ingredients come together to make the recipe good... all of our circumstances come together to make us who we are. God says that "in ALL circumstances, He works for the good for those who love Him" (Romans 8:28). I promise that the Lord is cooking up something good in our lives. His recipe isn't quite finished yet, but when it is.... it will be perfectly delightful!
