If you are looking for good options on Weight Watchers to use to dip this, I am including a few of my favorites for this chili cheese dip recipe. We have great success with Good Thins Corn Crackers, Baked Tostitos Scoops Tortilla Chips, (linked to show you what they look like, but can be found at most grocery stores for a lower price) and homemade tortilla chips using low point tortillas in the air fryer. With the low points of this recipe, you can even use regular corn chips or tortilla chips to dip.
Ingredients for Chili Cheese Dip
3 cups Fat-Free Refried Beans (vegetarian fat-free canned work great, but I prefer homemade)
3 cups Hormel Vegetarian Chili (approximately 2 cans - other brands are fine, but make sure to check the points value)
1 green bell pepper, diced
1 red onion, diced
10 slices Velveeta Original Flavor Cheese Product Slices
Directions for Chili Cheese Dip
Spray your slow cooker with non-stick spray to help prevent burning and sticking. Alternately, you may use a slow cooker liner.
Add half of the beans, chili, bell pepper, and onion in the slow cooker and stir.
Add half the cheese slices on top of the mixture.
Add remaining beans, chili, bell pepper, and onion in the slow cooker and top with remaining cheese slices.
Cook on low heat for 1 ½ hours.
Remove the lid and stir the mixture. If the mixture is heated through and cheese melted, feel free to serve. If not, place the lid back on the slow cooker and continue cooking for an additional hour.
Leave on warm if serving at a party or event.

Tip: I use a Slow Cooker Liner for dips like these so it doesn't burn or stick to the sides of the slow cooker. It makes cleanup a lot easier to manage.
