Hot cheesy bean dip with bubbly melted cheddar and tortilla chips

Serve it right in the baking dish — it stays warm longer that way.

How to make it

Heat the oven. Set it to 350 degrees.
Mix it up. Stir the beans, cream cheese, salsa, and 1 cup of the cheddar in a bowl until mostly smooth.
Fill the dish. Spread in a square baking dish and top with the rest of the cheddar.
Bake. Bake 20 minutes until hot and bubbly around the edges.
Serve. Scoop it up hot with tortilla chips.
