The Greatest Queso That Ever Lived...


I came across this recipe and thought "well I could add an ingredient to the browning of the meat and then it would be." I wouldn't say it's the Greatest because I'm looking for a home made (non Velveeta) cheese dip like you get in the Mexican Restaurants to give that title to but it is a Great Queso Recipe and probably the best one I've ever tried with Velveeta in it. My husband Jason even put it on his hot dog and burger because he grilled out while my daughter Kiana and her friend Desi were my little helpers with this new dip.

 

Here's the recipe:

Ingredients:


1 block (32 oz) Velveeta Cheese
1 package (8 oz) Cream Cheese
1 can Rotel
1 can (10.75 oz) Cream Of Mushroom Soup
1 pound Ground Beef
¾ package of Taco Seasoning

Preparation Instructions

Brown ground beef sprinkled with ¾ packet of Taco Seasoning in a pan over medium heat and set aside. Cut up the Velveeta and cream cheese into cubes and place into a crock pot. Pour in the Rotel and the cream of mushroom soup and stir ingredients together. Place the crock pot on low setting for an hour, letting the ingredients meld. After about 30 minutes, add the browned meat and continue to let cook, stirring as needed.

If you are a fan of Velveeta dip this is a must try! Jason said "Eww Cream of Mushroom Soup" but it does add a nice little flavor to the dip. Enjoy!

Here We Go...

After spending the last six days unable to cook on the stove or oven due to a gas leak on our stove I've been spending time online finding recipes for the crock pot and also making due with an electric skillet and our grill. Now that a new stove is arriving mid day I am ready to start using it and sharing my cooking adventures with all of you but the gas line fittings are not working out so the new stove will sit nice and pretty until Monday. I've got many recipes saved in my Pinterest account and I'm ready to try them and more. I will be publishing a new recipe at least five times per week. Some will be entrees, side dishes, casseroles, desserts and more. All photos will be my own and I will adjust the recipes as needed. 

I also am a coupon shopper as I've been doing it since before the coupon craze started so I will be sharing some tips on coupon shopping along the way. I will also be posting different home ideas and other things my readers may find of interest. But, the main focus will be cooking.

I'm Ms. Robin and here's to sharing my cooking adventures with each of you...
