Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese softened
  • 0.25 cup sour cream
  • 2 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp prepared horseradish
  • 0.5 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 0.25 tsp hot sauce
  • 0.125 tsp black pepper
  • 8 oz smoked tuna flaked
  • 1 scallion medium, thinly sliced

Method
 

  1. In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice, horseradish, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, and black pepper until smooth.
  2. Fold in the smoked tuna and scallion until evenly combined.
  3. Transfer the dip to a serving bowl.
  4. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.

Notes

For the smoothest dip, soften the cream cheese before mixing. Refrigerate covered for up to 3 days; freezing is not recommended because the dairy can become grainy. For a lighter option, use light cream cheese and light mayonnaise.
