10 steps

Ingredients

  • 3 ounces low-fat cream cheese
  • 4 ounces jalapeno jelly
  • 7 ounces tortilla chips or 7 ounces Frito Scoops

Directions

  1. 1
    Allow cream cheese to soften at room temp or microwave for 30 seconds until it is easily spreadable.
  2. 2
    Place chips in a single layer on a serving platter to cover the entire surface.
  3. 3
    You do not have to use them all.
  4. 4
    Using a small spoon spread desired amount of cream cheese on each chip.
  5. 5
    Refrigerate any cream cheese not used.
  6. 6
    Using a separate spoon add a dollop of jelly on top of cream cheese reserving any unused jelly for another purpose.
  7. 7
    Serve immediately.
  8. 8
    Try other types of jam or jelly but I try to use unusual varieties for maximum 'wow' factor like mint-pear, orange-onion, tarragon-tomato etc -- Excellent with Pvt Amy's #101956 White Zinfandel Jelly.
  9. 9
    I have even used crackers instead of chips-even plain old saltines work!
  10. 10
    Have fun and experiment!
