Skinny Taco Dip

It's that time of year again! This is my favorite time of year.  When we all get together and celebrate family and friends and give well wishes to a year coming to an end.  We've been doing Game Night the past few Sundays and I decided this time to make a dip to go with our chips.  I've been using a Watkins mix that I'd purchased while at the state fair.  They are great by the way.  If you have the chance to try Bacon and cheese do so =)  Anywho, I came across a recipe over on Skinny taste and am giving it a try.  It tasted so good I went ahead and grabbed the camera.  I do not know why this picture looks so orange, but I'll take another picture next time I make it and if it turns out then I'll replace this one =)

I altered this recipe ever so much to accommodate my families personal tastes.  I put half as much salsa as the original recipe requested, which made the dip thicker, as well as using FF cream cheese and FF cheese. If you want to make this dip less 'healthy' go ahead and substitute regular cream cheese, sour cream, and cheese in place of the FF versions on the ingredient list.
