Dips with No Shame

[grip]

Whenever I serve this warm dip (great in cool weather) I am always asked for the recipie and its so easy. The nuts are optional - I usually make 2 versions - 1 with and 1 without.

 

Hot Virginia Dip

 

16 oz cream cheese

5-7 oz dried beef

1 cup sour cream

1/2 tsp garlic salt

2 tbsp milk (if needed)

4 tbsp minced fresh onion

2 tbsp butter

1 cup chopped pecans

 

Mix cream cheese and sour cream. Chop dried beef into very small pieces and add to mixture. Use milk if needed to thin. Add salt and onion. Saute pecans in butter. Put cheese mixture in pie plate or other ovenproof dish. Sprinkle pecans on top. Heat at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes. (May be reheated). Serve with crackers.
