the flavors were okay but i had a difficult time getting the cheese to melt and mix with the cream. I may try it again though.

I prepared this dip for my women's Bunco group of twelve. Many thought it was an excellant dip. I did not have a double boiler so prepared it in the microwave on a low power setting and kept it warm in my fondue pot during the Bunco game.

Love this and make it often! It's the closest I've found to what we get at some Mexican restaurants. I don't use a double boiler -- just melt the cheese in a sauce pan VERY slowly on low, and stir occasionally. I add a small amount of cream cheese along with the pepperjack, and since we love the taste of cumin, I add that at the end. Also, I use 2 percent milk instead of half and half (less amount). I have never had trouble mixing the cheese and milk (as others have stated). The only problem I ever had was when I made it a day ahead, refrigerated it, then micro-waved it -- the milk separated from the cheese and was a big lump.

Like Annie, I had difficulty getting the half and half and the cheese to mix. I think perhaps you need to combine it and whisk and serve *right away*, or perhaps at a very high temperature, although it was already difficult to clean my double boiler and that might make it worse. Even as a cheese blob, though, my dad loved it, and I found the flavour even more pleasing on the second day.

This dip is very tasty but it was very runny until it cooled and the cheese began to harden. Most of the spinach sank to the bottom so I had to keep a spoon in the bowl and keep stirring it up. I didn't have any tomato but it was still good without it. I would make it again with much less cream.

I loved this recipe. I made it for a pot luck type of wedding shower and it was a big hit. Not a dip left over. I served it with cold pita bites.
