Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 16 ounces Velveeta cheese, cubed
- 10 ounces diced tomatoes with green chilies (Rotel)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons chopped green onions (for garnish)
- 1 bag tortilla chips (for serving)
Instructions
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef until browned and fully cooked. Break it apart with a spoon as it cooks to ensure even browning. Drain any excess grease and set aside.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and return the skillet to the stovetop. Add the cream cheese and cubed Velveeta cheese. Stir occasionally until the cheeses are fully melted and smooth.
Stir in the diced tomatoes with green chilies (including the liquid) and mix until evenly combined.
Sprinkle in the garlic powder, onion powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to incorporate the seasonings.
Add the cooked ground beef back to the skillet and mix until well combined. Let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the flavors to meld.
Transfer the dip to a serving dish or a slow cooker set on warm to keep it hot for serving.
Top the dip with shredded cheddar cheese and garnish with chopped green onions.
Serve warm with tortilla chips for dipping. Enjoy!
