Notes

  • Make Ahead: 
  • Storage: 
  • Freezing: 
  • Rotel: Can be substituted with diced tomatoes and diced jalapeño. Sauté until softened before cooking the ground beef. 
  • Ground Beef: can be substituted for spicy sausage. 
  • Prep this recipe by cooking the ground beef, layering it all together and storing in a covered dish in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Bake or heat in a slow cooker when needed. Increase baking time until dip is warmed through and cheeses are melted. Allow the dish to warm on the counter for 15-20 minutes before putting into a hot oven.
  • Store leftovers in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. 
  • To reheat the dip you can heat in the oven until warmed, adding milk as needed to loosen it back up if it's too thick.
  • Store cooked dip in the freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight. Reheat in the oven or in a slow cooker.
