Ingredients
Meat
- 1 pound ground beef
Other Ingredients
- 10 ounce can Rotel (diced tomatoes and green chilies)
- 16 ounces Velveeta cheese, cubed
Instructions
- Brown the ground beef: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until it is fully browned, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks. Once cooked, drain off any excess grease to avoid a greasy dip.
- Add Rotel and Velveeta: Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the entire 10-ounce can of Rotel along with the cubed Velveeta cheese to the skillet with the browned beef. Stir frequently to combine all ingredients and continue cooking gently until the cheese is completely melted and the dip is smooth.
- Serve: Transfer the warm dip to a serving bowl and offer it alongside tortilla chips, crackers, or fresh vegetable sticks for dipping and enjoying.
Notes
- Use lean ground beef for a less greasy dip.
- For extra heat, choose a spicy variety of Rotel or add a dash of hot sauce.
- Velveeta melts best when cut into small cubes before adding.
- Keep the dip on low heat or in a warm serving dish to maintain meltiness during serving.
- Can be prepared ahead and reheated slowly on the stovetop or in a microwave.
