Ingredients
 

  • 2 teaspoons olive or vegetable oil
  • 1 lb. ground beef
  • 1 ½ Tablespoons taco seasoning
  • 8 ounces cream cheese (softened)
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon taco seasoning
  • 1 cup salsa
  • 2 cups shredded cheese (I used a mix of cheddar and Mexican blend)

Toppings (optional):

  • 1 ½ cups shredded lettuce
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes (halved)
  • ½ cup red onions (chopped)
  • 4 green onions (chopped, green parts only)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the beef and cook, breaking up any large chunks, until beef is browned and no pink remains (7-8 min). Sprinkle with 1 ½ Tablespoons taco seasoning and stir thoroughly to combine. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, beat together the cream cheese, sour cream, and and remaining teaspoon of taco seasoning until combined.
  • In a 9 x 13 inch baking dish, layer ground beef, cream cheese mixture, and salsa. Top with shredded cheese.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Serve plain, or top with lettuce, tomatoes, red onions, and green onions. Serve with tortilla chips.

  • Leftover dip can be refrigerated and reheated (sans toppings) in a 350 degree oven until warm through.
