- 1 jalapeño (optional, finely chopped)
- 2 green onions (optional, thinly sliced)

Pour the canned chili over the cream cheese layer and spread it out evenly with a spoon.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and shredded Monterey Jack cheese over the chili layer.
If using jalapeño, sprinkle it over the cheese layer for added heat.
Bake the dip in the preheated oven for 10 minutes or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
