When I was a kid, one of my favorite party dishes was the Velveeta cheese dip my mom made. Because I was a picky eater, it was just a block of Velveeta and lightly seasoned ground beef. Now, I’m still a picky eater, don’t get me wrong; but I have at least broadened my palette enough to upgrade that classic dish with some additional ingredients. The recipe and cooking are still super easy, but that simple “cheese dip” of yesteryear (or decades) is now a full-on “taco dip”.
Let’s Make Taco Dip in Our Slow Cookers:
Get ready to make the ultimate crowd-pleasing taco dip that’s perfect for any party or game-day spread! Start by browning your taco meat in a skillet until it’s cooked through and packed with flavor. While the meat is sizzling, cut your Velveeta brick into 1-inch cubes—they melt beautifully in the slow cooker and make this dip irresistibly creamy.
Once the meat is ready and the cheese is cubed, toss them both into your slow cooker and set it to low heat. Next, sprinkle in your taco seasoning and pour in two cans of Rotel for that perfect kick of spice and diced tomato goodness. Give everything a quick stir to mix it up, then cover and let it cook for about two hours. Be sure to stir every 30 minutes to keep the cheese smooth and prevent sticking.
When it’s ready, just switch the slow cooker to warm, set out a big bowl of chips, and let everyone dive in! Trust me—this dip is so good, you might want to make a double batch!
