  • Jalapeños: I like the canned version best because you don’t have to worry about getting it in your eyes or making a mess. If you prefer fresh jalapeños, use gloves and cut them in half. De-seed and de-vein them for less heat, then mince them to your liking and add them to the jalapeño dip.
  • Spice: To make this Jalapeño dip more or less spicy, simply use more or less jalapeños. Adding paprika or red pepper flakes is another way to turn up the heat.

  • Vegetables: Celery, carrots, cucumbers, or bell peppers sliced for holding the dip on or place in a cup with the dip at the bottom for an easier appetizer.
  • Chips: A thick and sturdy chip is always good plus a little salty adding more flavoring in the jalapeño dip. Tortilla chips, pita bread or pita chips, Fritos scoops or
  • Bread: Sliced bread that is thick chunks like baguette or French bread work well with this dip. It is filling and tasty!
  • Snacks: Pretzels are perfect for a salty approach. The large and thick pretzels are great for dipping.

    I made it just like the recipe said, but put 4 tablespoons of jalepenos and some crushed red pepper to spice it up, still not very hot, I’m hoping that it gets a little hotter as it sits. Very good recipe.

    This was absolutely delicious. I ended up baking the dip at 350 for 30 minutes because we love a warm artichoke dip. I served this as an appetizer on Thanksgiving. My family devoured it. I had several appetizers and this is the one they raved about. Thanks for a simple but very tasty recipe.
