This Creamy Taco Dip is sure to be the hit of your next party. It’s creamy and meaty and full of flavor, making it perfect for tailgating, too!
If you love tacos, you are going to love this Creamy Taco Dip. When my daughter saw that I had made this dip, she got very excited. She came bounding out of the kitchen saying, “Mom, mom! Can I have some of that thing in there??” (She’s not the best at explaining what she’s thinking). Finally I figured out what she was talking about and granted her wish. Two servings later she still wanted more! I had to have her pump the brakes, but she made me promise she could have some the next day for snack again.
I said yes, but to be honest I’m just as obsessed with it so I can’t make any promises! Good thing it’s super easy to make. We may just be making another batch tomorrow!
You probably already have most of the ingredients on hand – ground beef, cream cheese, Rotel tomatoes (salsa would make an easy substitute), pinto beans, corn and a little taco seasoning for flavor. It isn’t spicy, but you could easily spice up this dish by adding a small can of diced jalapenos or replacing the Rotel with some spicy salsa. We shy away from too much heat, but you could definitely play around with the recipe and make it your own.
