It's coming up on Superbowl Sunday, so now is the time to start looking for a good recipe or two to snack on while you watch the
Chicken Ranch Spread
1 pound of cream cheese, softened
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 - 12.5 oz can chicken breast (drained)
2 Tbsp. Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing Mix
Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Chill. Serve with chips, crackers, etc.
Note: The above recipe is the original list of ingredients. I found that it was quite stiff and could use something like sour cream, ranch dressing, mayo, etc. to loosen it up if you would prefer to use it more like a dip. The flavor is decent and hubby loves it with multi grain crackers.
Mango Salsa
2 ripe mangos
2 medium avocados
1 medium bell pepper (yellow, red, etc. Not green), diced
1/4-1/3 cup finely diced red onion
1 lime
1/2 tsp salt (to taste)
Peel and dice the mangos and avacados. Add to bowl. Add bell pepper and onion. Roll the lime back and forth a few times on a flat surface, using the palm of your hand and pushing down firmly while rolling. This will help get more juice out of your lime. Cut then squeeze the lime over the ingredients in the bowl. Add salt. Mix all ingredients gently being careful not to mash the avocado.
This salsa is good served with tortilla chips. I love putting it on chili - the sweetness of the mango blends well with the spice of the chili!
