Description

My chili cheese dip is all you can ask for in an appetizer! Made with seasoned beef and salsa, it’s bulky enough to keep you satisfied without being too heavy. The gooey combination of spicy Pepper Jack and sharp Cheddar is creamy, silky, and incredibly delicious.

Ingreadient

1 lb ground beef (90/10)
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup milk
1 cup pepper jack cheese shredded
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese shredded
1 cup Pace Salsa Medium (or salsa of choice)

SERVE

tortilla chips
2 tbsp cilantro chopped
2 tbsp Cotija cheese crumbled

Direction

In a large skillet over medium heat brown the ground beef seasoned with salt, chili powder, cumin and garlic powder. Remove meat from skillet and set aside.
Make the roux to thicken your sauce by melting butter in skillet over medium heat and add the flour. Stir with whisk and continue to cook for 2 minutes. Whisk in milk and continue to cook on low for 3-4 minutes until thickened.
Whisk in the cheeses until smooth. Add the salsa and seasoned, browned beef (with accumulated juices). Simmer on low for 5 minutes.
Serve warm with tortilla chips and garnish with chopped cilantro and crumbled Cotija cheese.
