Notes

  • For a spicier kick, use hot Rotel or add extra diced green chilies.
  • If the mixture seems too liquidy after cooking, you can remove some of the excess liquid before adding the cheese dip.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 2 months.
