I have been making this for years. It is so good just for a snack. In fact, I have been known to make this for (Ahem!) Sunday supper. Just sit and munch.

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese (room temperature)
1 cup taco sauce (your choice in heat)
1/2 small head of lettuce (cut and diced)
1 large tomatoes (diced)
2 tablespoons diced green peppers
2 tablespoons diced onions
8 black olives (sliced)
8 green olives (sliced)
1/2-3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • I put this on a 12" round platter, but any dish would be fine.
  • Put the cream cheese in a bowl and beat with mixer.
  • Slowly add the taco sauce and beat well.
  • Neatly spread this on a platter.
  • Sprinkle the lettuce as the next layer.
  • Then over this arrange the diced tomatoes.
  • Next layer is the green pepper and then the onion.
  • Next layer is the olives arranged nicely.
  • Then lastly is the cheddar cheese; (In the photo I did not put it on because I didn't have any, but by the time we ate it, I had gone to the store and got some).
  • Use frito scoops or tortillas for scooping up the platter.
