Ingredients

  • ¼ cup salsa (60g)
  • cayenne pepper or hot sauce optional, for heat

Instructions
 

  • Place all ingredients in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until all ingredients are thoroughly combined and the cheese is bubbly and melted, about 5 minutes.

Crockpot Instructions

  • Spray the bottom of your slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray. Place cream cheese cubes in the slow cooker, then smoother them with chili, followed by salsa and cheddar cheese. Cook on LOW for 1-3 hours. Stir and serve.
