This hot and cheesy dip is where your food-high begins.
Don't expect to eat anything else unless you have to share it with more than two people. And in that case, an astringent green salad, crusty bread, and a cold beer are ideal.
If you want to toss in a handful or two of chopped spinach for added green- that's good!
Notes: Mayo is Hellmann's. Sour cream is Daisy.
