Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Monterey Jack cheese
- 1 cup sour cream
- 10 oz diced tomatoes with green chilies (Rotel)
- 1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 cup corn kernels, drained
- 1 tbsp taco seasoning
- 2 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
- 2 tbsp green onions, chopped
- 1 unit jalapeño, finely diced (optional)

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, and sour cream. Stir until thoroughly mixed.
Add the diced tomatoes with green chilies (including the liquid), black beans, corn, taco seasoning, and diced jalapeño (if using). Mix everything together until evenly incorporated.
Transfer the mixture to a 9x9-inch baking dish or any oven-safe casserole dish.
Spread the mixture evenly and sprinkle the top with a handful of extra cheddar cheese for a gooey topping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the dip is bubbling and the top is golden brown.
Carefully remove the dish from the oven and let it cool slightly for 5 minutes.
Garnish with chopped cilantro and green onions for a fresh, flavorful finish.
Serve immediately with tortilla chips on the side for dipping.
