Ingredients

  • 15 oz. can chili or 1.5 cups homemade chili
  • 8 oz. cream cheese cubed
  • 1 small jalapeño seeded and minced
  • 4 oz. freshly shredded pepper jack cheese
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • For Garnish: green onion parsley, avocado, or sour cream (all optional)

Instructions

  • Heat a sauce pan over medium heat and add olive oil. When olive oil is fragrant, add jalapeño and sautĂ© for 2-3 minutes. 
  • Add the chili and cream cheese and reduce heat to medium low. Stir occasionally for 3-5 minutes or until the cream cheese has melted and combined with the chili.
  • Add the pepper jack cheese and stir to combine. Once the cheese has melted, remove from the heat and garnish with your desired toppings. 
  • Serve warm and enjoy. This dip can be kept warm in a slow cooker on low heat for up to two hours– just make sure to stir it occasionally as it will form a skin as it sits.
