2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened \\
1 cup mayonnaise \\
1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chilies, drained \\
2 ounces canned, diced jalapeno peppers, drained (I use half of a 7.75 oz. jar – we like it spicy!) \\
may use fresh jalapenos to taste\\
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese\\
crumbled bacon to taste\\


Stir together cream cheese and mayonnaise in a large bowl until smooth.\\
Stir in green chiles and jalapeno peppers.\\
Pour mixture into a microwave safe serving dish\\
sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.\\
Microwave on High until hot, about 3 minutes. (I use the oven method!)\\
 



Smoked Variation:\\
If you would like to smoke spread, put mixture in cast iron sauce pan and \\
smoke on smoker for 2 hours. \\

Baked Variation \\
If you would like to brown the cheese, bake at 375 degrees F for about 30 minutes. \\
