Ingredients You’ll Need
So, to begin your Recipe you will require some crucial ingredients. It starts with Velveeta…you know, the good-for-melting cheese that is anything but gourmet. 1 pound or 16 ounces Velveeta cheese cubed so it melts evenly And one can of Rotel diced tomatoes and green chilies. It supplies a lovely amalgam of tastes and a thrill of spicy, all creeping out from to one side of that 10-ounce could. There are mild and hot Rotel options, you decide how spicy you want your dip to be.
While ground beef or sausage is optional if you would like to have more meat in the dip. Cooked & crumbled: 1 pound ground beef or sausage (to make the dip heartier). And, if you like a bit of flavor, feel free to add ½ cup chopped onion or ½ teaspoon garlic powder. They will increase the flavor of the whole thing, giving your dip so a lot richer of a style.
Preparation Instructions
1. Brown the Meat (if desired) – If you are using meat in this dip, start by browning beef or sausage. Heat a skillet over medium heat and coat with the meat. As it cooks, break up with a spoon, browning it well all over. Once the meat is cooked completely, drain any remaining fat so that your dip will not be greasy. If you are using onions, add them to the skillet with the meat and cook until they soften and turn translucent. This step will result in the dip taking up more flavor.
2. Step 1: Combine Cheese and Rotel: In a slow cooker or large saucepan, add the cubed Velveeta cheese and the can of Rotel diced tomatoes with green chilies. Over medium heat in a saucepan Good, with stirring constantly to make sure the cheese melts together well and mixes. It should take approximately 10 to 15 minutes. IN THE SLOW COOKER: Turn the slow cooker you just baked in to low and stir every now and again until cheese is melted completely and mixture is nice an creamy.
3. Mix in the Meat (if needed): If you cooked some meat, now is the time to mix it into the melted cheese. It has some ground beef, which is browned and then mixed right in the middle — that way you know where your fish sticks goes so you can quickly avoid it. For those of us who grew up on canned chili and love sloppy joes, this step makes perfect sense as the ground beef bits are evenly distributed throughout the dip providing a substantial chew and beefy flavor in every bite.
4. Sprinkle in half a teaspoon of garlic powder or any other seasoning you have lying around yourself to taste. Season with salt and pepper to taste, adjust the flavor accordingly.
5. Serve: Pour the mashed bean dip into a serving dish and enjoy while hot. And it will be excellent with tortilla, crackers and slices of crusty bread. The seductive side of melted cheese with the cooler tomatoes and spicy chilies makes these a seriously crowd-pleasing treat.
