Notes

  • Prep Ahead Instructions
  • All the components can be prepped up to 2 days ahead of time. Keep each component in a separate, airtight container and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • When ready to serve, heat taco meat up in a skillet over medium-low heat or microwave for 2 to 3 minutes before assembling.
  • Variations and Substitutions
  • If you want to go the more traditional 7 layer dip route, you can add a layer of guacamole and a layer of refried beans to this dip.
  • We love substituting the ground beef for carne asada, ground chicken or turkey or even for some crumbled tofu (for a vegetarian option).
  • For even more flavor, make a batch of pico de gallo to sprinkle on top instead of just diced tomatoes OR spoon some roasted tomato salsa on top!
  • Swap the shredded cheddar out for shredded pepper jack cheese or crumbled queso fresco.
  • Add some fresh sliced or pickled jalapeños for a kick.
