Creating the Perfect Blend

To start, you’ll need some green onions and pecans. Chop them up and get ready to mix them into a full cup of mayo. Add a generous amount of grated cheddar cheese and a dash of salt and pepper for that extra kick of flavor.

Bringing It All Together

Next, spread the mixture into a serving dish, ensuring it’s evenly distributed. Now comes the exciting part – topping it off with a generous layer of raspberry preserves. Use as much as your heart desires!

Although you don’t have to bake it, we recommend chilling the Raspberry Dip in the refrigerator for at least an hour. This will allow all the flavors to meld together beautifully and make scooping a breeze.
