This dip has been known to make me a very popular person at many a parties. Dip with, vegetables, chips or crackers. It can also be served over a nice thick steak, or even a nice healthy omelets.
1 1/2cupsshredded white Cheddar or Monterey jack cheese
1ripe black avocadopeeled and seeded
1small onion
1clovegarliccrushed
1can3 to 4 ounces green chilies, drained, or jalapenos, if you like it hot
Instructions
Combine all the ingredients in a food processor, and process until very smooth.
Scrape into a pretty serving bowl, and place the avocado seed in the middle. dtJ For some reason, placing the seed in the middle keeps the dip from turning brown quite so quickly while it sits out. But if you're making this a few hours ahead of time, cover it with plastic wrap, making sure the wrap is actually touching the surface of the dip. Don't make this more than a few hours before you plan to serve it.
