Three Cheese Chicken Mexican Dip

I’m not gonna take you through the whole “I love dips, I’m an appetizer whore, blah, blah, blah“.

You’ve heard it by now.

Three Cheese Chicken Mexican Dip

Look, it’s a known thing that I kinda obsess over this kinda thing. I would eat appetizers over mains any day.

Here’s a fact – I would rather eat pita chips and leftover whatever-salsa-or-dip-I-made-the-night-before for breakfast over real breakfast food any day.

Well, most of the time.

Sometimes I do really enjoy my husband’s eggs – ’cause he really makes them perfect. I love his over easy or fried or whatever the fuck they’re called; shit I NEVER remember and you would think I would for God’s sake.

EVERY.SINGLE.TIME. we’re out for breakfast I look at him when they ask me how I want my eggs and he always asks me “WHY can’t you remember – you’re the foodie!!”. I honestly have no answer. It’s a damn mental block.

Damn, those asshole eggs.

To this day, the man says he can’t cook. Classy way of getting out of doing shit. I mean, I’m not new at this and I don’t know why he doesn’t get that yet. I’m married with a 16-year-old daughter and 18-year-old son. I know manipulation coming from 17 miles away. Sometimes I may even let them think that I’m oblivious – but that’s only for me to benefit in the end; they just don’t know it. So, ok, so enough about all that.

This dip is pure luxe. Three Cheese Mexican Dip – it’s amazing.

It’s Muenster cheese, Mozzarella, cream cheese, shredded chicken and salsa, baked and topped with cilantro. Ok, so I threw in a little hot sauce, but you don’t have to. I just like having my mouth on fire a little tiny bit.
