Ingredients

1 8 ounce cream cheese, softened
½ cup mayonnaise
½ tablespoon juice from the jarred roasted red peppers
1 cup roasted red peppers, chopped small
½ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
3 green onions, diced

Instructions

Place the softened cream cheese in a large mixing bowl. Mix with an electric mixer until creamy. Mix in the mayonnaise, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until combined.
Stir in the chopped roasted red peppers, diced green onion, and shredded cheese. Stir to fully combine.
Serve immediately or cover and chill in the refrigerator until ready to eat.

Notes

Be sure to soften the cream cheese. Leave the cream cheese out at room temperature for about 30 minutes before mixing. This help to get a smooth, whipped cream cheese.

Pat dry the chopped peppers. After dicing the roasted red peppers, pat them with a paper towel to remove some of the excess liquid.

Try freshly shredded cheese. If possible, use freshly shredded cheese for the best flavor and texture.

Chill. I like letting this chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes - 1 hour to let the flavors really come together before serving.
