Tips:

Soften cream cheese: To make the dip smooth and creamy, make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature before mixing.
Use a food processor: A food processor makes quick work of chopping the onion, bell peppers, and jalapenos. If you don't have a food processor, you can chop the vegetables by hand.
Drain the corn and black beans: Be sure to drain the corn and black beans thoroughly before adding them to the dip. This will help prevent the dip from becoming watery.
Use a medium salsa: If you prefer a milder dip, you can use a mild salsa. If you like a spicier dip, use a medium or hot salsa.
Top with your favorite toppings: Once the dip is made, you can top it with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, guacamole, shredded cheese, or chopped cilantro.
