Notes

Make-ahead friendly and adaptable for slow cookers, this dip reheats well and can be frozen for later. Use rotisserie chicken and pre-shredded cheese for speed. To lighten, sub in Greek yogurt or add diced celery. For extra heat, top with jalapeños or hot sauce drizzle. Avoid overbaking to keep it moist.
