This Killer Bean Dip is just that – KILLER! SO good! We actually ate this for lunch the day I tested the recipe. Hamburger, taco seasoning, salsa, Velveeta, and refried beans. All of my favorites in one dip! It is way better than any dip from our favorite Mexican restaurant. Chicken Legs isn’t’ a fan of refried beans, but he loved this dip!

Tips for Making Killer Bean Dip

This dip is super easy to make with only a few simple ingredients. Start with browning some ground beef in a skillet. Next add taco seasoning, salsa, Velveeta, and refried beans. Heat the mixture on low until the cheese has melted and the dip is warm.

I made this on the stove, but you could also make it in the microwave or slow cooker. Either way, it will taste amazing!
You can substitute ground turkey for ground beef.
Can use store-bought salsa or homemade. For store-bought salsa, I like Mateo’s Salsa or Kylito’s Salsa. For homemade, I like our Superior Grill Salsa Recipe: https://www.plainchicken.com/superior-grill-salsa/
This recipe is easy to double or triple for a crowd.
