2. Cooking:

   • In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the diced green chilies, diced tomatoes, and chopped onions. 🌶️
   • Allow the mixture to come to a simmer, just until the onions begin to soften. This should take around 5-7 minutes.

3. Cheesy Goodness:

   • Once the veggies are tender, reduce the heat to low. 🌡️
   • Add in the cubed process American cheese, shredded sharp cheddar, Monterey Jack, and cubed Velveeta.
   • Gently fold the cheeses into the vegetable mixture until everything is well combined.

4. Creamy Perfection:

Serving Tips:

• This Mexicali Dip is best enjoyed hot, straight from the saucepan to the table. Keep it warm in a slow cooker or a fondue pot for extended snacking sessions.

• If you’re feeling adventurous, consider adding some extra toppings! Fresh cilantro, diced jalapeños, or a dollop of sour cream can take this dip to the next level of flavor.

• Not a fan of spicy food? You can adjust the heat level by using mild green chilies or omitting the black pepper altogether. 🌶️🌶️

• Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Simply reheat on the stove or in the microwave for a quick and cheesy snack anytime!

Flavorful Variations:

• For a heartier dip, stir in some cooked and crumbled ground beef or chorizo. 🥩🌶️

• Want to add a touch of sweetness? Try mixing in a tablespoon of honey or agave syrup for a delicious contrast of flavors.

• Love veggies? Add a can of drained and rinsed black beans or corn kernels for extra texture and color.

• Feeling extra cheesy? Sprinkle some extra shredded cheddar on top before serving for that irresistible cheese pull effect. 🧀✨
