Notes
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
Reheat: It’s super easy to reheat this dip in the microwave, just be sure to stir it up to ensure it heats evenly. We like to add a little more cheese on top and heat in 30-second intervals. You can also pop it back into the oven for 10 to 15 minutes, until heated through.
Freeze: You can freeze this bean dip in an airtight container or freezer bag for up to 3 months. For best results, thaw dip overnight in the fridge before reheating.
Crockpot: Follow the same instructions as the oven method, but instead of baking it in a casserole dish, add it to your slow cooker. Cover it with cheese and cook on low for 2 hours, then turn to warm and serve!
Spicy: If you want to make this dip spicier, you can add some cayenne pepper, chili powder, red pepper flakes, or hot sauce to the bean mixture. You can also spice it up with your toppings. Fresh (or pickled) jalapeños or some serrano peppers will amp it up!
Prepare in Advance: Prepare the dip up until the step of baking it. Instead, wrap it with plastic wrap or foil and store it in the fridge for up to two days. 30 minutes before baking, remove it from the fridge to warm on the counter. Then bake as directed!
