Rotel Dip is a creamy, cheesy dip combining ground beef, spicy Rotel tomatoes, and smooth Velveeta cheese, perfect for game day or casual gatherings. This savory dip is quick to prepare on the stovetop and serves as a crowd-pleasing appetizer with a bold Tex-Mex flavor.

Ingredients

Scale

Meat

  • 1 pound lean ground beef

Seasonings

  • 2 Tablespoons Homemade Taco Seasoning

Canned Goods & Dairy

  • 10 ounce can Rotel tomatoes (diced tomatoes with green chilies)
  • 16 ounce Velveeta Cheese, processed, cubed

Instructions

  1. Cook the ground beef: In a medium-sized skillet over medium-high heat, add the ground beef. Cook and crumble the beef until it is fully browned and no longer pink, about 7-10 minutes. Drain any excess grease from the skillet to avoid a greasy dip.
  2. Add seasonings and cheese: Stir in the homemade taco seasoning, the entire 10 ounce can of Rotel tomatoes (including the juices), and the 16 ounces of cubed Velveeta cheese into the skillet with the cooked beef.
  3. Melt and combine: Continue to cook and stir over medium heat until the Velveeta cheese has completely melted and the ingredients are thoroughly combined into a smooth, creamy dip. This should take about 5 minutes.
  4. Serve: Pour the warm dip into your preferred serving dish and serve immediately with tortilla chips, crackers, or fresh veggies for dipping.

Notes

  • Use lean ground beef to reduce excess grease.
  • Homemade taco seasoning can be substituted with store-bought for convenience.
  • Keep the dip warm over low heat to prevent the cheese from hardening.
  • Serve with tortilla chips, sliced jalapeños, or chopped green onions for added flavor and texture.
  • For a spicier dip, use hot Rotel tomatoes or add additional chili powder to the seasoning.
