Cranberry Jalapeno Dip
This recipe makes a big dish of dip that’s great for a crowd. The festive red cranberries, green scallions & jalapenos, and white cream cheese make it perfect for your holiday parties. You can serve this with any type of cracker – whole grain or the traditional refined buttery ones (not as healthy, but oh-so-delicious).Ingredients:
12 ounces fresh cranberries (one regular size bag)
2 jalapenos, finely chopped
4 scallions, chopped
2 tbsp cilantro, chopped
1/2 cup sugar
1 lime, juiced
1/8 tsp salt
14 ounces cream cheese
Add cranberries to a food processor and pulse once. If after once pulse there are still a lot of whole cranberries, pulse once more. Your goal is for most of the cranberries to be cut but you don’t want to puree them.
Pour cranberries in a bowl and mix with jalepenos, scallions, cilantro, sugar, lime juice and salt. Let sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes (that’s the minimum; longer is fine).
When you're ready to complete the dish, spread cream cheese into a pie plate.
Remove cranberry mixture from the fridge and place in a fine sieve. Let as much juice drain from it as possible.
Top cream cheese with cranberry mixture. Serve with crackers and enjoy!
