Time 30m

Yield 10-20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 lb ground beef
1 (1 1/4 ounce) packet taco seasoning
1 (16 ounce) package Velveeta cheese
1 (16 ounce) jar medium chunky salsa (or salsa of your choice)

Steps:

  • Brown ground beef and add taco seasoning as directed on packet. We usually use a little less water though.
  • Chunk the Velveeta and add to crockpot.
  • Pour in jar of salsa and add the prepared meat.
  • Let melt together in the crockpot, stirring occasionally.
  • At times, we have been in a hurry and used the microwave to help speed up the melting process for the Velveeta. Then just add the melted Velveeta to the other ingredients in the crockpot to keep warm and melty for dipping!
  • We have also used Mexican style Velveeta and Pepper jack, and it was just as good. Feel free to experiment.

EASY NACHO CHEESE DIP

This is as simple as it gets. You can make it as spicy or as mild as you like. It is perfect to take to holiday get-togethers. Just put it in your crockpot, grab a bag of nachos and you are good to go. My friend makes it every time her DH has a poker party and it goes like hotcakes. I have NO idea what a serving size would be or how much it serves.

Time 40m

Yield 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 lb ground beef
1 (16 ounce) jar salsa (hot, medium or mild, your choice)
1 (2 lb) package Velveeta cheese

Steps:

  • Brown ground beef.
  • Put everything in crockpot and melt together, stirring occasionally.
  • Once the cheese is melted, turn crockpot on low.
  • Keep an eye on the mixture, if you leave it to cook all day long it may burn- it all depends on your crockpot.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality cheese: The type of cheese you use will greatly affect the taste of your nacho cheese dip. A good quality cheddar cheese is essential, and you can also add other cheeses like Monterey Jack, queso Oaxaca, or pepper Jack for extra flavor.
  • Melt the cheese slowly: This will help prevent the cheese from curdling and becoming grainy. Stir the cheese constantly as it melts, and use a low heat setting.
  • Add some spices: A little bit of spice can really enhance the flavor of nacho cheese dip. Some good options include chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  • Use fresh ingredients: When possible, use fresh ingredients for your nacho cheese dip. This will give the dip a brighter, more flavorful taste.
  • Serve the dip immediately: Nacho cheese dip is best served immediately after it is made. This will prevent the dip from becoming too thick or oily.

Conclusion:

Nacho cheese dip is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any party or gathering. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a creamy, cheesy dip that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy snack, give this nacho cheese dip recipe a try!
