Dip Day is here again!

Today's dip is great because it's not your typical spinach or artichoke dip.......it's got roasted red peppers.....and cheese ofcourse! Try this dip with some warm baguette slices and you will be the HiT of the neighborhood! Bon Appetite!!

Cheesy Roasted Red Pepper Dip
7oz jar roasted red peppers (about 1C diced)
4 cups grated pepper jack cheese (3/4 lb)
8oz cream cheese
3/4 cups mayonnaise
2 tbsp minced onion
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
-Preheat oven to 350. Remove peppers from jar and blot excess water with paper towels. You want to make sure they are dry so they don't add moisture to the dip then, dice them up. In a bowl, soften cream cheese in microwave so it will be easier to stir. Add in mayo, onion, garlic, and dijon. Stir to combine and then add in grated cheese and the diced peppers. Place in an 8x8-ish dish (pie plate works). Place in the oven and cook for 30-45 minutes. It will start to bubble and brown on the outside edge, and you want it to be bubbly all the way through to the center. It will be nice and golden brown on top, especially around the edges. Serve immediately. Serve with tortilla chips, pita chips, crackers or veggies. However my favorite is soft, warm baguette slices.

We're almost to the weekend...YaY!
