When the heat kicks in, my cooking style shifts completely. I crave
things that are cool, refreshing, and still packed with bold flavor.
This Pineapple Jalapeño Dip hits every mark. Creamy with a sweet-tangy bite and
just the right touch of heat, it pairs beautifully with a chilled glass of
white wine on a warm evening. For dippers, I love using oversized croutons I
made from homemade
pizza bread, along with crisp apple slices, celery sticks,
and fresh pineapple chunks.
You can dial up the spice by leaving the seeds in the jalapeño—I usually do
because I enjoy that extra kick. I’ve also discovered it makes a fantastic
sandwich spread, especially on a ham sandwich. Feel free to experiment with the
ingredients or find new ways to serve it. Whatever you do, just make it—you’re
going to love it..PNG)

Pineapple Jalapeño Dip
1 12 oz. container whipped cream cheese
2 T. sour cream
1 8 oz. can crushed pineapple, drained
1 scallion, minced
1 Melissa’s pickled jalapeño, seeded (or not) and minced
1 t. garlic powder
1 t. sugar
½ t. kosher salt
Pinch Melissa’s
Chili Lime Seasoning
In a medium-size bowl, combine all of the
ingredients. Mix well.
Refrigerate for 2 hours before serving. I find it best when chilled overnight.
Serve with apple slices, celery sticks, fresh pineapple, croutons, crackers, whatever you like.

What a yummy looking dip! I've not had jalapeno with pineapple, but it sounds so, so good. Pairing it with a ham sandwich sounds delicious!
Thank you for sharing another great looking dip. It sounds amazing especially for this time of year. I have a LOT of jalapenos to use up so this is perfect.
Using homemade pizza bread croutons for dipping is such a genius, upscale touch, too. It’s the perfect mix of textures. I’m definitely Team Leave-The-Seeds-In because that extra punch of heat against the cool, whipped cream cheese is the best part of a sweet-and-spicy combo.
This sounds delicious - I love the sweet/hot combo in foods.
I'm sure I can make my own whipped cream cheese as we don't get that here. Off to investigate.
I am definitely saving this recipe for the next pot luck I am invited to.
