So today is another skillet recipe! haha Skillet Chili Cheese DipI took out the chili I made a few months ago from the freezer (I stored it in two 32 oz containers) and decided to do something new to it.

Chili Cheese Dip

Ingredients:
Leftover Chili (32 oz)
-4 tbs Siggi’s Icelandic Yogurt OR Cream Cheese
-1 cup Shredded Mexican Blend Cheese
-1/2 cup Pico de Gaillo
-1/2 Avocado
-Tortilla Chips

Instructions:
1. Take out your frozen chili the night before you want to make the dip and put it in the fridge to defrost.
2. Preheat the oven to 350º F.
3. Put the chili in your cast iron skillet, make sure it comes to a boil.
4. Once, it’s heated through, add the Icelandic yogurt or cream cheese and mix well. (FYI when I was figuring out how to make this, I looked up recipes and they all called for cream cheese. I just happen to have this particular yogurt at home which is thick and creamy and wanted to use it, it has a similar consistency to cream cheese.)
5. Stir in a bit of the shredded cheese in it too.
6. When everything is combined, sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese on top and put it in the oven.
7. Once the cheese is melted and the sides are bubbling (approximately 20 minutes), take it out of the oven. Sprinkle all of the pico de gaillo and avacado on top. Serve it with chips and enjoy!Pico de Gaillo for Chili Cheese Dip
