Ingredients

• 16 oz Velveeta cheese
• 1 lb Ground beef
• 10 oz Diced tomatoes with green chilies (e.g., Rotel)
• 0.5 cup Onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 tsp Chili powder
• 0.5 tsp Cumin
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 0.5 tsp Optional hot sauce (e.g., Tabasco, for extra heat)
• 2 tbsp Cilantro, chopped (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a large skillet, heat over medium heat and add the ground beef. Cook until browned and fully cooked, breaking it into small crumbles with a spatula. Drain any excess grease and set aside.

Step 2

In the same skillet, add the finely chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 2-3 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 3

Return the cooked ground beef to the skillet and season it with chili powder, cumin, salt, black pepper, and optional hot sauce if desired. Stir well to combine.

Step 4

Lower the heat to medium-low and add the diced tomatoes with green chilies, including the liquid. Stir to distribute evenly.

Step 5

Cube the Velveeta cheese into small chunks and gradually add them to the skillet, stirring occasionally until the cheese is fully melted and the mixture is smooth.

Step 6

Once fully combined and creamy, remove the dip from the heat. Transfer to a serving bowl or a slow cooker set to 'warm' to keep it hot during serving.

Step 7

If desired, garnish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.

Step 8

Serve immediately with tortilla chips, crackers, or sliced vegetables for dipping.
