We like to serve this dip with a variety of vegetables, crackers and tortilla chips for dipping.  I have fond memories of other campers asking us “what on earth are you making?”, trying some of this dip and falling in love!  It is just that good.

It’s easy to personalize this campfire dip to your families liking.  Simply substitute your favorite kind of cream cheese for the herb and garlic cream cheese in this recipe. 

I use vegetable cream cheese and homemade salsa most often.  You can mix it up and use whatever your favorite cheese is!
