Notes

  • Use lean ground beef to reduce excess grease in the dip.
  • Keep the heat moderate to prevent the cheese from scorching.
  • For a spicier dip, add chopped jalapeños or hot sauce.
  • This dip can be kept warm in a slow cooker on low setting for parties.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
