Avocado Dip

INGREDIENTS: 2 avocados; halved, seeded and scooped 1 1/2 cups sour cream 1 teaspoon cumin 1/2 teaspoon Sriracha or other hot sauce 3/4 cup chunky salsa 3/4 cup Sargento shredded mild cheddar cheese, divided use 3/4 cup chopped tomato; divided use salt and pepper to taste fresh cilantro for garnish

DIRECTIONS: 1. In a large bowl, mash avocados with a fork or potato masher. 2. In a small bowl, stir together the sour cream, cumin and Sriracha. 3. Fold sour cream mixture and salsa into the avocados. Add in 1/2 cup cheese and 1/2 cup tomato, season with salt and pepper; mix well. Cover mixture; chill 1 hour. Before serving sprinkle remaining cheese and tomatoes over dip. Garnish with cilantro. Serve with chips.

NOTES: -The flavor of this dip will vary depending on the salsa you use. I prefer a fresh variety over canned. -If you prefer a smoother dip, place the avocado and sour cream in a blender and pulse your machine until you reach a smooth consistency. -If you want a thinner dip, add in a bit more sour cream. -Feel free to substitute reduced fat sour cream and/or cheese. I’m not a fan of the fat free stuff, so I wouldn’t recommend that option.
