Cream Cheese and Salsa Dip

This is one of those recipes that is always a hit! Thanks for my friend Amy, who showed me the recipe years ago, I still can’t stop thinking about it. It is the best dip while watching the football game or playing games around the table. With simple ingredients, this recipe is ready in no time! I love the added bread bowl for extra taste and texture to hold with the cheese dip. As the dip starts running out, it is always fun to peel apart and start dipping the bread in the remaining cheese sauce. It is thick, rich and creamy with a hard outer shell to hold it all together! I love using Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Foil in this recipe because it creates a strong and tight wrap around the bowl. While this is bread bowl dip is baking, the foil also helps the bread bowl bake evenly, creating a crispy outside while maintaining a creamy, rich salsa dip on the inside. It is the perfect combination! Cream cheese and salsa dip is one of those dips that will be around for years to come. Dip with vegetables, chips, crackers and bread slices. It is always a family favorite and something that is easy to make even with the help of little hands!

Ingredients for Baked Cream Cheese Bread Bowl

This delicious bread bowl is loaded with cream cheese, sour cream, cheddar cheese, and salsa for a little extra kick. Together, these ingredients create the most delicious baked cream cheese bread bowl dip.

Cream Cheese: Soften the cream cheese the best that you can. Leaving it out on the countertop works great. Sour Cream: Cools down the spice, but adds to the creamy part of this dip. Salsa: Adds a little bit of spice and heat but not enough to make you sweat! It’s the perfect balance! Cheddar Cheese: Freshly shredded cheese off the block is best for baking, but a bag of shredded cheese will work and can save on time. Sourdough Loaf: Cut the top off the loaf and scoop out the inside of the bread to make a bread bowl. Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Foil: This thick and durable foil helps bake the bread bowl evenly and contains all the flavor wrapped up perfectly.

It is quick and simple to make! Add all the ingredients together, place in a cut out bread bowl and wrap it up tightly using Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Foil making sure the entire bread bowl is wrapped in foil for baking. All together this is the best dip and a family favorite!

Carving a Bread Bowl

Make your bread bowl from scratch using this No Knead Bread Recipe or pick your favorite kind of bread at your local grocery store. I love a good sourdough bread bowl or a Whole wheat one. The best size is a medium-sized bread bowl that is little enough to bake, but big enough to house all of the cream cheese dip. Once you have that ready it is an easy task to get started.

Why Use Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Foil?

Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Foil is thick and durable which holds things together and results in less mess. The rolls come in a wider 18-inch box making it easier for covering or lining larger roasting pans or foil packets like these Butter Garlic Herb Steak Foil Packets. Using something a little stronger is best to get the job done without worrying about tearing! Reynolds Wrap® is perfect for bigger and tougher recipes like this cream cheese salsa dip.

Lining Pans for use in the oven Freezing meals ahead or storing leftovers Making foil packets or lock in moisture and flavor when you grill, bake or cook. Protects against both heat and freezing cold.

How to Wrap a Salsa Bread Bowl

Place the bread bowl filled with the cream cheese salsa dip in the middle of a piece of Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Foil. Slowly and gently without the ingredients falling out, fold up each side of the foil and cover all around the bread bowl until you no longer see the bread bowl. Place in the oven and bake!
