Helpful Tips
- Help It Get Smooth – Cut the Velveeta into small cubes before melting to help it melt evenly and prevent clumps.
- Make It Ahead – You can prepare the dip ahead of time and reheat gently on the stove or in a slow cooker before serving. Just stir occasionally to keep it creamy.
- Use Your Favorite Chili – I think canned chili is very much a personal preference, so choose whatever brand you like the most. It’s best without beans, but you can use with beans, if you want.
