Transfer the mixture into a 9×13-inch baking dish, smoothing it out so the layer is even throughout. - Add the Cheese Layer
Top the mixture with both shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses, building a generous cheesy topping. - Bake to Perfection
Place the dish in the oven and bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and starts to turn golden. - Cool & Serve
Let the dip rest for a few minutes before serving. Pair it with tortilla chips, crackers, or whatever dippers you love most.
