This Easy Cream Cheese Dip is perfect for crackers, for veggies such as cucumbers, for chips, for pretzels and more. This tuna dip with cream cheese is one of our fave last-minute appetizers. (No sour cream.)

🥘 Ingredients

You will need a few simple ingredients:
- 1 block cream cheese: leave this out to soften so it's easier to mix. If you have leftover, you can turn it into salsa cream cheese dip (made from scratch, not a jar of salsa)!
- 1 can tuna, drained
- 1 onion: minced. I recommend a red onion for more sweetness.
- 1 Tablespoon of lemon juice: I tested the recipe with and without the lemon juice. It definitely makes a difference to the flavor, so don't skip it!
- 1 teaspoon of red chili powder: if you don't like spice, leave this out but it does make the cream cheese dip taste better. I used Korean gochugaru flakes.
- a pinch of salt
- 1 green onion: this is to add freshness and color. You can also substitute with chives.

🥡 How to Store
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 1-2 days.
