Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 10 ounce can Rotel (diced tomatoes and green chilies)
- 16 ounces Velveeta cheese, cubed
Instructions
- Brown the beef: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until fully browned, breaking it up into small pieces as it cooks. Once browned, carefully drain off any excess grease to reduce fat content.
- Add Rotel and Velveeta: Add the entire can of Rotel (including juices) and the cubed Velveeta cheese to the skillet with the beef. Stir well to combine all the ingredients evenly.
- Melt the cheese: Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue stirring the mixture until the Velveeta cheese is fully melted and the dip is smooth and creamy throughout.
- Serve: Transfer the warm Rotel Dip to a serving bowl and enjoy immediately with tortilla chips, crackers, or fresh vegetable sticks for dipping.
Notes
- For a spicier version, add diced jalapeños or a splash of hot sauce.
- Keep the dip warm over low heat or in a slow cooker for longer gatherings.
- You can substitute ground turkey or chicken for a leaner option.
- Use mild or spicy Rotel depending on your preferred heat level.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated gently on the stove or microwave.
