Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 2 cups shredded Mexican blend cheese
- 1 lb ground beef
- 10 oz diced tomatoes with green chilies (Rotel recommended)
- 1 cup black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 cup corn kernels, drained
- 2 tbsp taco seasoning
- 2 tbsp green onions, chopped
- 2 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped (optional for garnish)
- 1 jalapeño, sliced (optional for garnish)
- 1 bag tortilla chips
Instructions
Preheat a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the ground beef and cook until fully browned, breaking it up with a wooden spoon as it cooks, about 5-7 minutes.
Drain any excess grease from the skillet.
Add the taco seasoning to the cooked ground beef and stir well to coat. Cook for another minute to evenly distribute the seasoning.
Reduce the heat to low and add the cream cheese to the skillet. Stir until the cream cheese is melted and well incorporated.
Pour in the diced tomatoes with green chilies, black beans, and corn. Stir to combine fully.
Gradually add the shredded Mexican blend cheese, stirring constantly until the cheese is melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Pour the dip into a serving dish or leave it in the skillet for a rustic presentation.
Garnish the dip with chopped green onions, cilantro, and sliced jalapeño, if desired.
Serve warm with a side of tortilla chips for dipping.
