I've been wanting to share this recipe with you all month, but just like making this apple pie for myself wouldn't be a good idea, neither would making this dip. You see, it's loaded with fat and grease (which equals yummy) and even though I'm pregnant, I try not to give into all of my cravings. I waited for my parents to be in town so they could help me devour it, and they did. Normally I make it with green chiles, but my husband doesn't care for those so I left them out. I would recommend NOT leaving them out as they add quite a bit of flavor to the dip.
Hope you enjoy this as much as we did!

8 oz sharp cheddar cheese, grated
8 oz. mild cheddar cheese, grated
8 oz. monterey jack cheese, grated
24 oz. sour cream
1 small can green chiles
Preheat oven to 375F. Lightly grease an 8x8 baking dish. Lay 1/3 of sharp cheddar cheese on the bottom of the dish. Place 1/3 of green chiles on top of this. Then, spread 1/3 of the sour cream over this. Next, sprinkle the mild cheddar, and top with monterey jack. Repeat layers in this order 2 more times. Bake for 30 minutes. Serve hot with tortilla chips.
