South of the Border Leftovers (Beef Taco Dip)

Dinner

For dinner last night I whipped up some quick soft tacos, I had LOTS of meat leftover but didn’t want tacos again tonight, so it was off to Pinterest for some brainstorming ideas. I came across a Beef Enchilada Dip recipe, I had all the ingredients except for the enchilada sauce BUT I did have taco sauce. I followed the directions step by step and just substituted the enchilada sauce for taco sauce and to add to the sauce I added a diced tomato. This was a easy, delicious and quick recipe, definitely would be a part favorite, this might make a comeback for Superbowl Sunday!

Serving 4

You will need:

– 1lb of ground beef

– ½ medium onion, diced

– 1 clove of garlic, minced

– 1 tomato, diced

– 1 cup of taco sauce

– 1 cup of grated Monterrey Jack

– 1 cup of Cheddar Cheese

– Shredded lettuce (optional)

– Sour Cream (optional)

– Tortilla Chips (I used Tostito’s Scoop, that way you get ALL the dip)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 380°F

Brown ground beef in a large skillet. Drain. Add in onion, garlic and tomatoes and cook until tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in enchilada sauce.

Pour beef mixture into baking pan. Cover and allow cheese to melt, about 3 more minutes.

Top with sour cream and serve with tortilla chips.

& Enjoy xoxo.
