Thanksgiving Feast - Appetizer - Veggies and Dip

If our Dad is in attendance of our Thanksgiving Feast (or Holiday Feast, depending on if it's Thanksgiving, Christmas or New Years when we cook it) this recipe has to be also.  We don't know where it originated, but it is tasty!

Some people in our family don't like this dip (*gasp*), so we put out ranch as well. 

Veggies and Dip

Cut up celery, carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, bell peppers, or any other veggie you would like to use for dipping.  Include dill pickles, sweet pickles and black olives to complete the "relish tray".

Fiesta Dip

1 bottle of chili sauce (Do not use generic brand.  We tried it once and it was NOT good.)
8 oz cream cheese, softened
2 tbsp milk
1 tbsp onion flakes
2-3 dashes Tabasco sauce

Mix well and chill before serving.


**Update 11/6/2013 - Our Aunt Gloria (one of our most devout supporters) shed some light on the history of this recipe!  HOORAY!  She got it a long time ago from her friend, Marg, and it's official name is "Fiesta Dip".  She uses the blender to mix it into a really smooth texture (good idea - less elbow grease!)  She told us that our Aunt Sheila really liked it, too.  Thanks, Aunt Gloria.  We appreciate you!  XOXO
