My brother's girlfriend had a babyshower this past weekend and I made all the dishes for her. I told her about this recipe. I made it for the babyshaoer and got winderful reviews from it. Everyone fell in love with it and have asked me for the recipe. I was surprise because they are use to the tradtional rotel dip. This is a hit and I will be making it from now on for family gatherings. Kudos to Leslie, this is a winner...please give it a try. Tondra from TN

Wow! This dip is so yummy. I made this for my sister's baby shower last weekend and everyone loved it. I had many requests for the recipe! I used a 12 OUNCE jar of roasted red peppers because I really love the taste of the peppers. I also used 1/2 lb. of Monterey Jack cheese and a 1/4 lb. of Co-Jack cheese. That is because I didn't have enough of the one kind. I used 1 TB of grated onion and 1/2 cup of mayo and 1/2 cup of sour cream. It turned out perfect. Thanks for such a great recipe. I'll definitely be making it for future get togethers!

Made this last night. It was good! Great to have a warm dip. I used light cream cheese and light mayo. Still great! Easy too!

HUGE hit at last night's party. Everyone wanted the recipe. I mixed it exactly as written. I didn't like the idea of baking it as long as instructed, I actually mixed it the night before and mic'd it for 2 min's just before serving. I will make this again...and again....and ........
