Description
A creamy and cheesy dip perfect for parties or game days.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef (lean, medium, or extra lean)
- 1 tbsp taco seasoning (or 1/2 tsp each chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cumin)
- 1 can Rotel (10 ounces, or 1 can diced tomatoes with chilies)
- 1 brick Velveeta cheese (2 cups, 16 ounces, cubed)
- Diced tomatoes
- Freshly parsley or cilantro (chopped)
- Green onions (chopped)
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet or frying pan to medium heat. Add the ground beef and break it apart with a wooden spoon. Cook until no pink remains and meat is cooked through, approximately 5 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add in the taco seasoning and Rotel with juices. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until it is fully combined and the sauce is simmering; reserve 1 tbsp of the diced tomatoes to garnish the dip before serving.
- Add in the cubed Velveeta cheese. Stir continuously until the cheese is fully melted.
- Optional: garnish the dip with the reserved diced tomatoes, chopped parsley or cilantro, and/or sliced green onions. Serve the dip immediately with tortilla chips, crostini, or toasted baguettes to dip and enjoy!
Notes
- This dip is great for gatherings and can be kept warm in a slow cooker.
