Amy's Cilantro Cream Sauce



"This cilantro cream sauce can be used as a dip, or as a sauce for fish or chicken. Taste and add additional seasoning if necessary. Tomatillo sauce is usually spicy, so be prepared!"

INGREDIENTS
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 tablespoon sour cream
1 (7 ounce) can tomatillo salsa (green)
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon celery salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

DIRECTIONS
Combine cream cheese, sour cream, salsa, pepper, celery salt, cumin, garlic powder, cilantro and lime juice in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy. Place in a serving bowl.


*I modified this recipe some. I cut the cumin from 1/2 to 1/4 teaspoon. I also added several tablespoons of sour cream and a 10 oz. jar of tomatillo sauce instead of a 7 oz. jar.

It was delicious! It would be good on a burrito or a chip or ......your finger.

Thank you, Amy!
