Preheat oven to 375°F. Add the cheeses, chilies, tomatoes, pickles, ketchup, mustard and Worcestershire sauce to a bowl and combine well. It's not going to look too appetizing at this point, but trust me, the end result is delicious.
1 cup cream cheese, 1 cup cheddar cheese, ¼ cup canned diced green chilies, 1 cup canned diced tomatoes, ¼ cup dill pickles, 1 teaspoon ketchup, 1 teaspoon yellow mustard, 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
Transfer the mixture to an 8" or 9” baking dish and place it in the preheated oven. Cook for 10 minutes to melt the cheeses.
Meanwhile, heat a skillet over medium heat on the stove. Add the ground bison and cook until fully browned - about 5 minutes. Break into small chunks as it cooks.
½ pound ground bison
Remove the cheese mixture from the oven, add the ground bison and stir well. Place it back in the oven for another 10 to 15 minutes or until the dip is hot and bubbly.
Let cool for a few minutes before serving as it will be very hot. Top the dip with green onions and bacon bits. Serve with tortilla chips, pita chips, crackers, crusty bread etc.

Soften the cream cheese: To soften the cream cheese you can leave it at room temperature for about 1 hour or submerge the sealed cheese container/block in warm water for about 15 minutes.
Fridge storage: When you're done entertaining guests, cover the dish or transfer the dip to a sealed container, then store it in the fridge. Eat the dip within 3 to 4 days for maximum freshness.
Freezer storage: Freeze for up to 1 to 3 months in a covered, freezer-safe container. Thaw in the fridge and then reheat or reheat from frozen in an oven-safe dish.
Reheating: You can reheat bison cheeseburger dip in the oven at 350°F, to enjoy it hot and bubbly all over again. Be sure to cover with foil for better results.
