Caliente Cheddar Dip Mix is made of yellow cheddar, two chilies and spices. So simple, but the layers of flavor and heat make it so delicious.
Serve it as Caliente Cheddar Cheese Ball rolled in chopped nuts or crushed Doritos® (pictured). It’s great with beer, very popular with the guys and perfect for parties!
Try it cold with tortilla chips (pictured) or crackers for dipping, or hot with pretzels.
OTHER GREAT WAYS TO SERVE THIS DIP:
Kicked Up Baked Dip: Add cooked chicken or beef to Caliente Cheddar dip and bake for Hot Chicken Enchilada Dip or Hot Beef Enchilada Dip. See RECIPES for directions for baked Caliente Cheddar Dip.
Stuffed Veggies:
Put dollops on sliced red peppers and serve cold (pictured) for Caliente Cheddar Stuffed Peppers, or heat just until cheese browns on peaks for Hot Caliente Cheddar Stuffed Peppers. These are easy party appetizers.
Scoop out baked potato halves. Add prepared mix to mashed baked potatoes. Trim skins to about 1/2”. Fill skins with mashed potatoes; return to oven and bake until peaks are just brown for Caliente Cheddar Potato Skins. Or return all cheese mashed potatoes to skins and bake until reheated through and peaks begin to brown for Twice Baked Caliente Cheddar Stuffed Potatoes. The skins are great for parties and the twice baked potatoes are a nice compliment to prime rib or steak dinners.
Topping: It really livens things up.
Use it slathered on hamburgers for Caliente Cheddar Cheeseburgers. Really good with beer and seasonal ales.
Dollop on top of sliced baked potatoes instead of butter and sour cream. It’s an easy side dish for chicken or any meat.
