Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 oz Cream cheese
- 16 oz Velveeta cheese
- 20 oz Canned diced tomatoes with green chilies (e.g., Rotel)
- 1 lb Ground beef or sausage
- 2 large Jalapeños (optional, diced)
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Chili powder
- 0.5 tsp Cumin
- 1 tbsp Hot sauce (optional)
- 2 tbsp Cilantro (optional, chopped)
- optional Tortilla chips (for serving)
Instructions
In a skillet, cook the ground beef or sausage over medium-high heat until fully browned. Drain any excess fat and set the meat aside.
Cut the cream cheese and Velveeta cheese into small cubes to ensure they melt evenly.
In a crock pot, combine the cooked meat, cream cheese, Velveeta cheese, canned diced tomatoes with green chilies (do not drain), diced jalapeños (if using), garlic powder, chili powder, and cumin.
Stir the ingredients together to distribute the spices evenly.
Cover the crock pot with its lid and cook the mixture on LOW for 2 hours, stirring occasionally to ensure the cheese melts smoothly and all ingredients are well combined.
After 2 hours, taste and adjust the spice level by adding hot sauce if desired.
Garnish the dip with chopped cilantro (if using) before serving, and provide a bowl of tortilla chips for dipping.
Keep the dip warm by setting the crock pot to the 'WARM' setting during serving.
