Expert Tips

  • Tip 1
    Placing the cheese on top of the chicken mixture keeps the chicken moist and also keeps the cheese from burning if it touches any hot spots in the slow cooker.
  • Tip 2
    If you’d like keep the dip in the slow cooker on Warm setting for your party, stir cilantro into the dip instead of sprinkling over the top.
