A creamy base of Velveeta and cream cheese melts into a rich, silky dip. A touch of sour cream and shredded cheddar add tang and extra cheesiness. This effortless recipe is a crowd-pleaser and also works wonderfully as a nacho cheese sauce.

Equipment Needed For Slow Cooker Chicken Nacho Dip

A small slow cooker is ideal for this recipe. A 4-quart slow cooker fits the ingredients well. If your slow cooker is larger, the dip will still work — simply reduce the cooking time slightly.

How Long To Cook

Cook on LOW until the cheeses are melted and the flavors are blended, about 1½ to 2 hours. Stir once halfway through to prevent browning at the edges. When ready, switch the cooker to WARM and serve straight from the crock.

How Spicy Is This Dip?

Using hot Rotel tomatoes and a spicy taco seasoning will give the dip noticeable heat. For added kick at the table, offer Cholula or another hot sauce for guests to drizzle on top.

Variations

Swap canned corn for the black beans, or use browned ground beef instead of chicken for a different flavor profile. You can also add diced green chiles, extra jalapeños, or a splash of lime for brightness.

Storage

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave, stirring occasionally. If the dip thickens too much when chilled, stir in a little milk to thin to your desired consistency.
