White Chicken Enchilada Dip

This white chicken enchilada dip is ready in under 30 minutes and is insanely good. I have served this on so many game days and family hangs. People love the beans and creamy cheese base, but mostly the golden cheese on the top.

Notes

  • The taco seasoning used will determine the flavor and spice level of the dip.
  • Sour cream can be used in place of Greek yogurt in this recipe.
  • Make this meatless by omitting the chicken and adding another can of beans.
