Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound white American cheese cubed
  • 1/2 pound sharp cheddar cheese shredded
  • 1 can diced tomatoes with green chilies 10-ounce, undrained
  • 1/4 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • to taste Fresh cilantro chopped (for garnish)

Equipment

  • Crock-pot
  • Measuring cups
  • Measuring Spoons
  • Wooden spoon
  • Serving bowl

Method
 

  1. Start by cubing the white American cheese and shredding the sharp cheddar cheese. This will help them melt evenly in the Crock-pot.
  2. In your slow cooker, add the cubed white American cheese, shredded sharp cheddar cheese, the can of diced tomatoes (with juices), whole milk, chili powder, ground cumin, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  3. Stir everything together until well combined. Cover the Crock-pot and set it to low heat. Let it cook for about 2 hours, stirring occasionally to ensure even melting and prevent sticking.
  4. Once the cheese has melted and the dip is nice and creamy, give it a good stir. Transfer it to a serving bowl, and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro. Serve warm with your favorite tortilla chips or veggies.

Notes

  • Make sure to stir occasionally and keep the heat on low to prevent burning.
  • If your dip becomes too thick, simply add a splash more milk to loosen it up.
  • This dip is naturally gluten-free, making it perfect for a wider audience.
