Yummy dip for when your cheering for your favorite team or binging on your favorite show.
The recipe testing team and I came up with three good reasons to make this Easy Cheesy Nacho Dip:
- It’s the perfect warmup snack before watching the big game
- It’s a notch (or two) above microwave popcorn on movie night
- To share with friends before Sunday karaoke? It’s a thing.
And did you know that this ooey-gooey dip also provides a full daily dose of Vitamin D-licious! (cue symbols crashing).
The above lame joke probably nullifies all our good reasons for making this dip. However, we think there is a 98% chance none of it will go to waste if you do!
