How to make slow cooker chicken nacho dip

Print this recipe
As far as I’m concerned, every party should center around a pot of warm, gooey cheese dip and a bowl of crunchy tortilla chips. I mean, how can you even call it a party without some chips and dip? The recipe below is simple to make in a slow cooker and is always a crowd-pleaser.
You can make this dip vegetarian by doubling the beans and leaving out the chicken. Serve it right in the slow cooker, set to “keep warm,” and your guests won’t leave until the pot is empty. Just make sure you've got lots of chips on hand.

1 (15-ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
2 cups shredded cooked chicken breast
