The recipe is full of flavor and multiple textures – you’re first soothed by the cool creaminess of the sour cream and mayonaisse, but then comes the bite of salty cheese and two different kinds of jalapeƱo. There’s fresh jalapeƱo, with its bright, grassy heat, and pickled jalapeƱos with their delicious vinegar tang. It’s a full-mouth flavor explosion that you (and your guests) will love.

Keep your jalapeƱo and cheese dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. And obviously this works with more than just tortilla chips! It’s just as tasty with fresh cut vegetables.
