Note
This dip can be served cold as prepared, or heated in the microwave or oven until the cheese is melted for a warm, gooey texture.
For best results, assemble the dip shortly before serving to keep the chips crisp and the avocado fresh.
To make this recipe vegan, substitute the Cheddar cheese with a vegan cheese alternative or omit it entirely.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. The chips will soften, so it is best served fresh.
