Notes

  • Storage: To store leftovers, place them in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven for the best results.
  • Freezing: Yes, you can freeze this dip! Just be sure to cool it down completely, then transfer it to a freezer-safe container. It can last up to 2 months.
  • Pairing: This dip pairs wonderfully with corn chips, nachos, or even as a filling for burritos!
  • Extra Flavor: For added zest, mix in some diced green onions or cilantro before baking. This adds freshness to the dip.
  • Spice It Up: If you enjoy a kick, add diced jalapeños or a splash of hot sauce into the mix!
  • Creaminess Variations: Mix in some sour cream for an even creamier texture if you desire!
