Taco Dip - refried beans, taco seasoning, ground beef, sour cream and cheddar cheese - everyone goes crazy over this dip!! SO easy and SO delicious!
This is one of our all-time favorite tailgating dips. I've been making a version of this dip for years. It is easy to make and it is always a hit. I changed it up this time and added some ground beef. I think the ground beef really put this dip over the top. This dip can be assembled ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator until you are ready to bake it. We served the dip with Fritos, but tortilla chips would be good too.

I make a similiar dip that is easy.
ReplyDeletelayer in this order:
Cream cheese (softened)
No Beans Chilli
shredded cheese
i like your version...above looks good but sour cream tends to curdle in the oven opposed to cream cheese...i will be trying yours this weekend! Nascar snacks! ;)
DeleteOur version of this dip is a can of prepared chili, cream cheese, shredded cheese and green onions. Serve with Tortilla Chips.
ReplyDeleteAnother cream cheese dip I love is:
1 8 oz cream cheese, 2 packages of Parmesan (the small packages), one medium red onion chopped finely. Mix all together, heat in 350 oven until cheese mixture is bubbly. Serve with flavored crackers, or Ritz.
As usual I'm salivating. I'm going to need a drool bib before opening your posts from now on.
ReplyDeleteI like the ground beef addition or chorizo would rock too!
ReplyDeleteI have a cold version of this dip, layered in a 13x9 pan. It's delish:
ReplyDeletefat free refried beans
low-fat sour cream mixed w/a packet of taco seasoning
shredded cheese
green onions
I used to put salsa and shredded lettuce in between the cheese and the sour cream layer, but it gets too soggy, I think.
My cuzzin only has Fritos.
ReplyDeleteIt make he walk kinda funny.
This sounds amazing!!
ReplyDeleteLooks soooo good.
ReplyDeleteIf you put a jar of salsa on top of the sour cream, it adds a great taste!
ReplyDeleteI am going to try the salsa next time - sounds tasty
ReplyDeleteI always add a can of green chilies mixed in with the beans.
ReplyDeleteI made this last night for the Cowboys football season opener and it was GREAT!!! Husband loved it AND there's leftovers!! W00t!!
ReplyDeleteI subbed ground turkey for beef, non-fat greek yogurt for sour cream, and cut the cheese from 2 cups to about 1 1/4 of reduced fat cheese. Plus, added a 4 oz can of diced green chilis to the meat mixture and used my own taco seasoning instead of a store bought packet. AMAZING!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI wonder how it would taste with black beans vs. refried beans? Sounds amazing either way!
ReplyDeleteI make a cold dip actually which so many love as well...Layer as this order:
ReplyDelete8oz soft cream cheese(not whipped)
8oz Chili sauce
8oz Shredded Cheddar
8oz Shredded Mozzarella or Monterey Jack
1 Lg green bell pepper(diced fine)
1 lg red bell pepper (diced fine)
1 med white onion (diced fine)
1 med red onion (diced fine)
Serve with Frito Lay scoops corn chips or Tostito scoops
That sounds delicious! Can't wait to try it. Thanks for sharing.
DeletePamela Taber, do you mix it all together and bake or layer that?
DeleteI've done similar type of dip, but always top with chopped onion, lettuce, and tomato. I think whatever one does is terrific. You can also leave out the meat, do more beans, and not bake so cheese is also loose. Makes a yummy dip also!
