Cooking Taco Dip in a Microwave: What's the Time?

In summary, cooking taco dip in a microwave takes about 2-3 minutes, and it is recommended to cover the dish for even heating. Metal dishes should not be used, and stirring halfway through cooking is important. Leftover taco dip can also be reheated in the microwave.

I am making the taco dip, but have to use a microwave. How long do you cook it for? Does anyone know? I haven't had to make any of the dips in a microwave yet.
 
About 5 minutes. I never make touchdown taco dip in the oven anymore.
 
It really depends on the specific recipe and the power of your microwave. I would suggest starting with a minute and then checking on it and stirring if necessary. Repeat in 30-second intervals until it reaches the desired consistency. It's always better to start with less time and add more if needed, rather than overcooking it. Good luck!
