This is another delicious recipe that is part of my review of Gooseberry Patch's Simple Shortcut Recipes
It is super easy to throw together and it makes a lot, so it's the perfect dip to serve at a party. The best part is you can make it a few days ahead of time, so no stressing last minute. The recipe says to chill for at least 24 hours before serving, but I did eat some immediately after it was made and it tasted amazing. The only difference I noticed after 24 hours of chilling was that it had thickened. You can serve it cold or you could keep it in a small crockpot and serve it warm. It was good cold, but I preferred it warm.

8 oz. pkg. cream cheese, softened
16 oz. container sour cream
11 oz. can sweet yellow and white corn, drained
15 oz. can black beans, drained and rinsed
10 oz. can diced tomatoes with green chiles, drained
1 1/2 Tbl. salsa seasoning mix (I used taco seasoning)
2 c. shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
tortilla chips
In a large bowl, mix all ingredients. Cover; chill at least 24 hours before serving. Serve with tortilla chips. Serves 10-12.
Jenn's Notes: I used fat-free cream cheese, but full-fat sour cream. I'm not sure what salsa seasoning is, so I just used taco seasoning. This dip tasted amazing!
Looks so yummy! I can't wait to try! Thanks for sharing.

ReplyDeleteLands Sakes! We would scarf this down quickly too. Looks fabulous. This recipe is being featured at Weekend Potluck - 4 little Fergusons blog post - today. Thanks so much for sharing.
ReplyDeleteCame over from Weekend Potluck. This sounds great! I am a new follower! Patsy
ReplyDeleteThis is right down my alley, I love dips and all Mexican foods:) Just dropping in form Manic Monday to check out your dip and to invite you to Freedom Fridays. So hoping to see you there!
ReplyDeleteLove this dip! C'mon over and check out my latest post where I am sharing this dip, and a link back here...thanks - http://thebetterbaker.blogspot.com/2012/07/fiesta-dip.html
ReplyDeleteHave you ever tried this dip replacing the sour cream with Greek yogurt? Seems like it would work. I'm a newbie with Greek yogurt, but would love to lighten things up a bit if possible.
ReplyDeleteI love Greek yogurt. I have not tried it in this particular recipe, but I have combined it with salsa and it made a great dip. I totally think it would work in this recipe, it might just change the taste slightly? You could always do 1/2 yogurt and 1/2 sour cream. -Jenn
DeleteThis dip is amazing! Taking it to a hog roast this weekend!
ReplyDeleteA hog roast, huh? Have fun. I'm glad you like it. -Jenn
DeleteThe husband, the kids, and I all LOVE this dip. Delicious!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad to hear that - thank you! - Jenn
DeleteMade this tonight.. I loove it! I put Extra taco seasoninh and also salsa.. I bought some thinking it called for so i said oh well.. I put about 2 or 2 1/2 tbsp of salsa.. Loved this.. Bought tortilla but thinking scoops would be better
ReplyDeleteGreat idea adding the salsa. I'll try that next time. Thanks for letting me know you loved it! - Jenn
DeleteGreat dip! Thanks for posting! For those who want a little more of a kick...I would add either another packet (or half) of taco seasoning, or see if there is a spicy version of the seasoning. Spicy Rotel instead of Original would be another option!
ReplyDeleteThey had something similar to this at Costco recently that I bought and absolutely LOVED, it disappeared so fast. I tried to go back and get another one, but was told that they wouldn't have it in stock anymore. I was so sad, until I found this, because it looks SO similar! I can't wait to try making it!
ReplyDeleteOh I hate it when you find something you love and they stop carrying it. I hope this tastes the same! Let me know. - Jenn
DeleteI looked up Salsa Seasoning Mix and after learning what it was, I remember seeing it at Walmart. It's used in making salsa when you can tomatoes. You can find it next to the canning materials, like mason jars and such. Looking forward to making this for a snack this weekend!
ReplyDeleteInteresting - I will look for it! Thanks - Jenn
DeleteI wonder if you could use this to spread on tortillas, roll up and slice into rounds/spirals. I had something similar to this made that way but could never find who made it to get the recipe.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds wonderful. This dip might be a little soft to stay inside the tortillas, but I say it is worth a try. If you add less sour cream it will be a little thicker.
DeleteIf you eliminate the sour cream and substitute a little chili powder for the salsa seasoning, they work great on the tortilla shells. I make the pinwheels like this every New Years and they disappear fast!!
DeleteWhat brand has sweet and white corn? Or is a can each?
ReplyDelete11 oz. can sweet yellow and white corn
No, it is not a can of each, it is one can total. I'm not sure what brand has it, but you can just use one can of regular yellow corn if you can't find it. - Jenn
DeleteI wonder if fresh diced jalapenos would be a good addition for that extra "kick". I just finished making this and I love it! I bet it would be even better, if you like spicy food, if I added the jalapenos.
ReplyDeleteYes, if you like a little "kick" dicd jalapenos would be great. Or you could use a spicier diced tomatoes and green chiles. I'm so glad you like it! - Jenn
DeleteWe made this last night. Fantastic! If you wanted more a of a kick, you could do like others said and add more taco seasoning or I was thinking even buffalo sauce? However, we made it exactly as the recipe called for it and even ate some right after mixing- sooo good. Had some for lunch today, still great! Thinking of adding something to add a little kick to the rest of the batch, but either way, TASTY and EASY recipe! P.S. We used Tostito Scoops- great for this kind of thicker dip!
ReplyDeleteHave you ever used chipotle chili powder? It has a slight smokey flavor and it is pretty spicy. That might add just the kick you are looking for :) I am so glad you liked it - thanks for letting me know.
DeleteI'd like to make this for a party I have tonight. Does it HAVE to be refrigerated for so long?
ReplyDeleteIf you don't have time to refrigerate it for very long before the party, it will still be delicious.
DeleteJust made this today and have it in the fridge for tomorrow. I already tasted it and it is so good! I left the tomatoes out (personal preference) so they aren't a must if anyone else is considering leaving them out. :) Thanks for posting the recipe!
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you liked it!
DeleteMade this tonight 12/18/14...I was torn between this recipe and the regular corn dip recipe...The raw diced onions in the regular corn dip recipe was a turn off for me...With that being said, I found that this is a good base for a dip, but it needs a little rescuing...It screamed for green onions, so I added some. I used more seasoning than stated bc it needs more flavor, and it can definately use some heat...Between the cream cheese and the sour cream, it can handle it. I look forward to seeing what the party goers think...I will keep playing around with this one bc of its flexibility and ability to hold flavors..thanks!
