Velveeta cheese dip with ground beef is the best cheese party treat, and it’s great for a game day. It’s a perfect crowd-pleasing snack to share with your loved ones. A combination of cream cheese and Velveeta cheese makes this queso dip super creamy. A pound of leftover ground beef, as well as a can of chili, will also add the meatiness of this cheese dip.
If you like your Velveta cheese dip with ground beef hot, adding some hot sauce and a cup of salsa will add richness to your queso dip. The heat level can be changed based on the preference, either it’s mild, medium, or a very hot salsa and sauce. Don’t forget to also add green pepper, jalapeno, and onion to elevate the flavor.
The leftover ground beed must be cooked until it perfectly browns in a pan before it’s transferred to a crock pot. As for the other ingredients, just dump all of them in the pot and cook for three hours with a low heat. Keep in mind to buy one or two large bags of tortilla chips to enjoy this Velveeta cheese dip that is known as the ultimate crowd pleaser.
