Creamy Pico De Gallo Dip

This is such an easy dip and so worth it. I can't believe that I never thought to mix Pico de Gallo with cream cheese. 

I can think of so many things to do with this dip...like put it on top of chicken breast or mix it with pasta. 

Creamy Pico De Gallo Dip
Recipe from Thenovicechefblog.com

1 c chopped tomato (about 4-5 Roma tomatoes)
1/3 c chopped red onion (about half of a small onion)
1/4 c chopped cilantro
1 jalapeno, seeded and minced
1 garlic clove, minced
juice from one lime
1 (8 oz) block Neufchâtel Cheese (the skinny cream cheese)

In a medium bowl, toss together tomato, red onion, cilantro, jalapeno, garlic and lime juice. Use immediately, or let marinate for a few hours if you have the time. This can also be done as early as the day before.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a baking dish with nonstick spray.

Lay Neufchâtel Cheese on baking dish. Cover with Pico de Gallo. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until warmed throughout.


I didn't heat this up. Instead kept it chilled. So much better.
