Instructions
How to Make Easy Rotel Dip
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the ground beef. Crumble it while cooking for about 6-8 minutes until it’s fully browned.
- Drain excess fat from the cooked beef and place it on a paper towel-lined plate.
- In the same skillet, reduce the heat to low and add the softened cream cheese. Stir constantly for about 2 minutes.
- Gradually incorporate the cubed processed cheese in batches, stirring continuously.
- Once the cheeses are fully melted, mix in the cooked ground beef and pour in the canned tomatoes with green chilies.
- Allow the mixture to heat gently for about 1 minute while stirring.
- Off the heat, gently fold in the sour cream.
- Transfer the dip to a slow cooker set on warm to keep it creamy.
Notes
For best results, use room-temperature cream cheese to avoid lumps. Stir regularly if using a slow cooker to maintain texture.
