Servings: 8

Preparation duration: 10 minutes

Cooking duration: 40 minutes

 

Ingredients:

1 10.75-ounce can Campbell's Cheddar Cheese Soup

10 to 15 corn tortilla chips (round or triangle)

8 ounces brick-style cream cheese, very well softened to room temp

8 ounces salsa

1 1.25-ounce packet fajita seasoning mix (McCormick, Mrs. Dash, etc.)

1 8-ounce bag shredded cheese, divided (Mexican blend, Pepper Jack blend, etc.)

Equipment:

baking pan

pie form

oven

spatula

knife

frying pan

Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat oven to 375F. Spray a 9-inch pie dish (or similar-sized oven-safe baking dish) with cooking spray. Place tortilla chips in dish so they cover the majority of the bottom, slightly overlapping. This prevents soup from seeping through. Add the soup and lightly spread it evenly over the chips with a spatula or knife. Evenly sprinkle the fajita mix over the top. Evenly sprinkle not quite half the cheese over the top (I used about 40% of the bag); set aside remainder. Add the cream cheese in about 1/4 cup blobs and with a spatula or knife, do your best to carefully distribute it evenly over the pan without disturbing the other layers. Some small bald patches are okay because it bakes together. Tip - the softer your cream cheese is, the easier this step is. Evenly pour the salsa over the top, spreading it lightly with a spatula or knife if necessary. Evenly sprinkle reserved cheese over the top. Bake for about 30 to 40 minutes, or until top is golden browned, bubbly, and dip is done to your liking. Allow dip to cool momentarily before serving. Serving Suggestions - tortilla chips, bread, crackers, bagel chips, pita chips, mini toast crackers, carrot/celery/zucchni/jicama/cucumber sticks, bell pepper wedges, or eat by the spoonful. Dip is best warm and fresh, but extra will keep airtight in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Gently re-heat in micro before serving leftover portion. We ate the leftover portion in squares like lasagna.

Food Joke

John invited his mother over for dinner. During the meal, his mother couldn't help noticing how attractive and shapely the housekeeper was. Over the course of the evening, she started to wonder if there was more between John and the housekeeper than met the eye. Reading his mom's thoughts, John volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, my relationship with my housekeeper is purely professional." About a week later, the housekeeper came to John and said, "Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the beautiful silver gravy ladle. You don't suppose she took it, do you?" John said, "Well, I doubt it, but I'll write her a letter just to be sure." So he sat down and wrote: "Dear Mother, I'm not saying you 'did' take a gravy ladle from my house, and I'm not saying you 'did not' take a gravy ladle. But the fact remains that one has been missing ever since you were here for dinner." Several days later, John received a letter from his mother which said "Dear Son, I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with your housekeeper, and I'm not saying that you 'do not' sleep with your housekeeper. But the fact remains that if she were sleeping in her own bed, she would have found the gravy ladle by now. Love, Mom"
