Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef or sausage
- 1 (10 ounce) can Rotel diced tomatoes and green chilies, undrained
- 1 (16 ounce) package Velveeta cheese, cubed
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, cubed
- 1/2 cup milk (optional, for thinning)
Instructions
- Brown the ground beef or sausage in a skillet over medium heat. Drain off any excess grease.
- Transfer the cooked meat to a small slow cooker.
- Add the undrained Rotel, cubed Velveeta, and cubed cream cheese to the slow cooker.
- Cook on low for 1 to 2 hours, stirring every 30 minutes until all cheeses are completely melted and smooth.
- If the dip is too thick, stir in milk, one tablespoon at a time, until you reach your desired consistency.
- Serve warm with tortilla chips or crackers.
Notes
- For a sausage version, use breakfast sausage instead of ground beef.
- If you do not have a slow cooker, you can melt the ingredients together in a saucepan over low heat on the stovetop. Stir constantly.
- Add 1/4 cup chopped onion with the meat for extra flavor.
