Note

For best texture, add the lettuce, tomato, and green onions just before serving to prevent them from wilting or becoming soggy.

You can assemble this dip ahead of time by layering the sour cream and cheeses, then refrigerating until ready to bake. Add the fresh toppings after baking.

Feel free to adjust the heat level by choosing mild, medium, or hot salsa based on your preference.

Leftovers should be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, but the fresh toppings will not keep well.
