Hearty bean dip

 This cheesy, meaty (or vegetarian) dip is simple to make for family movie night or watching the big football game on television.
INGREDIENTS:
1 small loaf of Velveeta cheese product, regular or Mexican.
1 can of Hormel chili, regular, with turkey, or vegetarian.
1 large bag of tortilla chips, or 6 to 8 slices of sandwich bread, toasted and cut into dipping strips or triangles.
Optional: carrot sticks
DIRECTIONS: Cut the cheese product into small chunks, no more than 1 inch in size. Mix with chili in a small, 1.5-quart crock pot. Heat for at least an hour and stir to make sure ingredients are well blended. Serve hot with the chips or toast points, keeping the crock pot on warm.
