How to be creative
  • Add cooked ground beef or sausage for a heartier option.
  • Mix in some diced tomatoes or bell peppers for added flavor and texture.
  • Try using different cheese blends like Monterey Jack or Pepper Jack for a twist.
Important Tips
  • Make sure to let the dip cool for a few minutes before serving; it will be very hot!
  • For added flavor, consider adding a dash of hot sauce to the mix before baking.
  • If you want a thinner dip, add a splash of milk to the mixture before baking.
