Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 c chili with beans
2 c four cheese Mexican cheese blend divided
8 oz softened Neufchatel cheese
1/2 c mild/medium/hot salsa
2/3 c tomatilla salsa
tortilla chips for dipping

Pour the cream cheese mixture into the bottom of the baking dish. Sprinkle with 1/3 of the remaining shredded cheese.
  • 2. Spread the tomatilla salsa over the cream cheese, and sprinkle with 1/3 of the remaining shredded cheese.
  • 3. Spread the chili over the tomatilla layer, and sprinkle the last 1/3 of the shredded cheese on top. Place into the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or until bubbly. Remove from the oven and sprinkle chopped scallions on top for garnish. Serve with tortilla chips. Yield: approximately 1 1/2-2 quarts Cook's note: I had leftover chili in my freezer from a recent batch of my Slow Cooked Southern Style Chili with Beans. I also made my own tomatilla salsa. For a time saver, both can be purchased at the grocery store.

TEX MEX DIP

This fast, easy dip can be served as a main dish or as an appetizer. Depending on the ingredients, it can be mild to medium. This really needs to be served warm, as it has a layer of cheese that gets firm when cool. It reheats well, but is best when fresh. Serve with plain tortilla chips.

BAKED LAYERED TEX MEX DIP

I was skeptical about this recipe, and if it would be any good. But it was a hit. I probably used way more cheese and salsa than it called for, and this was an ooey gooey appetizer of deliciousness. If I had homemade leftover chili or homemade salsa it would have been even more over the top. Recipe courtesy of Baked Layered Tex Mex Dip. Serving size is estimated.
