Easy Beef Salsa Dip

1 lb velveta cheese, cut into 1 inch cubes
2 lbs lean ground beef
1 medium onion, chopped
16 oz salsa
1 Tbsp Crushed Peppercorn & Garlic Rub
2 Roma tomatoes
8 oz sour cream
green onions
tortilla chips

In DDB, break up the ground beef and add chopped onions. Microwave (HIGH) 4 minutes, covered. Chop ground beef with mix 'n chop and return to microwave for 3-4 minutes until done. Drain fat. Add rub and cheese cubes to ground beef. Pour salsa over the cheese. Microwave for 6 minutes. Stir.

Meanwhile, dice tomatoes and green onions to serve with the dip along with the chips.


I don't know who to credit this recipe to but it is YUMMY! ...and I don't care for velveta cheese.

someone posted this one on CS - it's an old PC recipe. I'm sure it can be done in the microwave too. Do you think it should be doubled in the DBC?

That sounds yummy too! I guess you could double that, but it would seem so thick. There are kind of a lot of steps to this one. I wish there were more that you just threw in the ingredients almost all at once. This one sounds yummy though! We're having my parents over on Mother's Day...I may need to try one of these.
