I am going to try to make this appetizer this Christmas. Everyone LOVES a Mexican dip. I thought this was such a clever idea since you use almost the same ingredients and can create the look of a Christmas Tree to serve.
- 8 ounces sour cream
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 4.5 ounces green chilies (1 small can) drained and diced
- 4.5 ounces chopped black olives (1 small can) drained (optional)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder or more to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon seasoned salt or more to taste
- 5 10″ flour tortillas (spinach if you are going to make the tree above)
-
Blend together sour cream and cream cheese with mixer. Stir in chilies, olives, cheese and seasonings.
-
Spread the mixture on equally on each of the floured tortillas and roll them up tightly.
-
Wrap each roll in plastic wrap and refrigerate for overnight or for at least 2 hours.
-
Slice and serve with salsa
When I was in London, I found the most gorgeous gemstone rings. I brought one home and every time I wear it I get asked so many questions about it. I was able to contact the jeweler and he sent me a few other one of kind rings for a blog sale just in time for Christmas…the rings are so gorgeous in person and all are under $100. They make incredible gifts…..Email me for more information..
Now….are you ready to shop with Glenn Close? She recently put her Bedford estate on the market after living there for 30 years!! She recently hosted her daughter’s wedding there last summer. The home is really stunning. There is going to be an incredible estate sale there this weekend, Thursday, December 12- Sunday, December 14. All the information for the sale can be found HERE.
I am the WORST wrapper!! I cannot wrap a gift to look presentable at all. So when my uber talented friend Eddie Ross posted that he was going to be on a show called Wrap Battle, a gift wrapping competition, I was fascinated. OMG!! I LOVE it. The contestants, Eddie being one, are given different items to wrap each week in order to win the grand prize. And the items and assignments are really OUT OF THE BOX!!!!! Of course I think Eddie’s are truly the best, or at least have been for the episodes that I have seen. You have to check out this show. It is so much fun for this time of year…To learn more about the show click HERE. PS Carson Kressley (from Queer Eye) is one of the hosts!!!
