Call it what you want – Garbage Dip or Trash Dip as some say is always a summer hit. This is a pretty easy dish to take along to summer picnics, lake outings or just for your family.  This recipe was given to me by a friend when I worked at Hands On Memphis.  It is popular with our family and Rachel’s friend’s request it from time to time.

Garbage Dip 

4 tomatoes (chopped and seeded)

1 can of black olives (chopped)

1 can of green chiles (chopped)

4 green onions (sliced)

1 cup of cilantro

1/2 cup of Italian dressing

 1 – 2 cups Monterrey Jack Cheese (depending on your taste – we like more!)

I also add 1/2 – 1 teaspoon cumin. I think cumin makes everything better!

Store in fridge but it won’t be around for long!
