Bacon Cheeseburger Queso Dip: Steps
1. Cook the beef
Place a skillet over medium heat. Add 1 pounds ground beef and 0.5 small onion, finely diced. Cook everything together, stirring now and then, until the beef turns brown and the onion gets soft. Carefully pour out any extra grease.
2. Add flavor
Stir in 2 garlic cloves, minced and cook for about 30 seconds, just until it smells really good. Sprinkle in 1 pinch salt and black pepper, to taste and mix it all together.
3. Make it creamy
Turn the heat down to low. Drop in 8 ounces cream cheese, softened and pour in 1 cups milk. Keep stirring until the cream cheese fully melts and the whole thing looks smooth and silky.
4. Add the cheeses
Toss in 1 cups shredded cheddar cheese and 1 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (or Monterey Jack). Stir well until every bit of cheese melts and the dip looks thick and creamy.
5. Finish it up
Mix in 0.5 pounds cooked bacon, crumbled and 1 can (10 oz) diced tomatoes with green chilies, drained. Let the dip bubble gently on low heat for 3 to 5 minutes (05:00), stirring a couple of times, until it gets nice and thick.
6. Serve warm
Scoop the hot dip into a serving bowl. If you like, sprinkle 1 optional toppings: diced pickles, green onions, extra bacon right on top for extra fun and flavor. Dig in right away while it’s warm!
