This super easy dip is always a hit, and you only need three ingredients.. Take the dip along to a tailgating party, a home game-day gathering, office party, or any other event.
With only three ingredients it might seem almost too simple, but that makes it that much more versatile. Add chopped cilantro to this dip for extra flavor, and use your favorite salsa. Other possible additions include chopped fresh or canned chile peppers, chopped sautéed onions, hot sauce, or tomatoes with green chiles. Browned and well-drained lean ground beef is another popular addition, or make it with ground bulk sausage.
Serve this popular cheese dip right from the slow cooker with tortilla chips or corn chips for dipping.
