9 steps

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces softened cream cheese
  • 1/2 cup Miracle Whip (don't sub mayo)
  • 1 cup finely diced ham
  • 5 green onions, finely chopped
  • 3 tablespoons finely chopped green peppers
  • 1 tablespoon Frank's red hot sauce
  • 1 tablespoon prepared horseradish
  • salt (optional)

Directions

  1. 1
    Using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese, Miracle Whip, Red Hot sauce, and horseradish, until smooth.
  2. 2
    Stir in the remaining ingredients and taste before adding salt.
  3. 3
    The ham usually adds enough salt.
  4. 4
    Chill, covered, until serving.
  5. 5
    (It's best if allowed to sit a couple of hours, but can be served immediately).
  6. 6
    NOTE: You need the sweetness that the Miracle Whip adds; that's the reason for not using mayo.
  7. 7
    Also, if you use a different hot sauce you will want to adjust the amount.
  8. 8
    Frank's isn't very spicy, but it adds wonderful flavor.
  9. 9
    Something like Tabasco will add much more heat, but not as much flavor.
