In a medium skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until fully browned, breaking it up into small crumbles as it cooks.
Drain any excess grease from the skillet, then stir in the taco seasoning along with 1/4 cup of water. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the seasoning is well incorporated. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a large microwave-safe mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese and sour cream. Microwave on high for 1 minute or until softened, then mix until smooth and creamy.
Stir the Rotel diced tomatoes and green chilies into the cream cheese mixture, followed by the cooked ground beef and 3/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese. Mix thoroughly.
Transfer the mixture to a serving dish or a shallow baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
Microwave the dish for 2-3 minutes, or bake in a 350°F oven for 10 minutes, until the cheese on top is melted and bubbly.
Garnish with sliced green onions and chopped cilantro if desired.
Serve warm with tortilla chips or vegetable sticks for dipping. Enjoy!
