How to Make Apple Annie S Tea Room Appetizer Dip

  1. In a medium bowl, combine 8 ounces of softened cream cheese, 2 tablespoons of finely chopped scallions, 1/4 cup of finely diced bell peppers (any color), 1/2 cup of crushed pineapple (drained), 1/4 cup of chopped pecans, and 1/2 teaspoon of seasoned salt.
  2. Using a mixer or a whisk, blend all ingredients until completely smooth and creamy. If using a mixer, mix on low speed to avoid splattering.
  3. Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld. This step is optional but recommended.
  4. Serve chilled with your favorite crackers, vegetable sticks, or fruit slices. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
