Notes

  • I used rotisserie chicken for convenience.
  • You can add black beans, jalapeño, olives, cilantro, or green onions if desired.
  • Substitute 2 1/2 tablespoons taco seasoning for the individual spices.
  • To reduce heat, use mild Rotel.
  • To make in a slow cooker, assemble in the crock pot and cook on LOW until warm.
  • The dip is low-carb, keto-friendly, and gluten-free.
