Cheesy Mexican Chorizo Dip

This ultra-creamy Cheesy Mexican Chorizo Dip is perfect for game night! Always a fan favorite!

Cheesy Mexican Chorizo Dip

I’m comin’ in hot today folks! Hot and spicy!

If you’re a basketball fan, you know March Madness 2019 is about to start.

If you’re not a basketball fan, let me break it down.

March Madness is the Division 1 men’s basketball tournament that includes 67 games over a period of 19 days.

So you know what that means?

We need snackin’ food and lots of it.

Cheesy Mexican Chorizo Dip

So let’s start with this Cheesy Mexican Chorizo Dip.

I’ve been making this dip for more years than I can count.

You’ll only need a handful of ingredients and less than 15 minutes to throw it all together and it’ll disappear faster than fast. Take it from me.

Why?

Because it’s cheesy and creamy, packed with roasted red peppers, green chiles, spicy chorizo and perfect alongside a beer for watching the game!

Grab some tortilla chips and let’s spice things up, shall we?

Enjoy!

A Few Cook’s Notes for Cheesy Mexican Chorizo Dip Recipe:

This dip tastes delicious without the chorizo too, if you have vegetarian guests.

You can make the dip ahead of time, keep it in the fridge, and then just pop it in the oven when you’re ready.

I love to serve this dip with tortilla chips, but you could also serve it with fresh veggies.

    I was a huge basketball fan when I was younger, but I’ll be honest, now I’m just into March Madness for the food! ;) But really, I’m into most everything if it involves food. LOL! This chorizo dip is EVERYTHING, Mare!! Spicy, cheesy, meaty! Check, check and CHECK!! I could eat a big ‘ole vat of this and call it dinner for sure! Pinned!

    You know I’m in for snack food, but any sport… I’m just not into it. So, thank you for breaking March Madness down for me :D I needed a lesson! But if it involves food (and beer/cocktails), I know it’ll be a good time! The flavors look over the top, Mary Ann!

      This dip have been a favorite for years at our house Traci. Sometimes I make it without the chorizo when I’ve got vegetarian friends coming over. Just as delish!
