Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1/2 small onion, finely diced
  • 2 tbsp taco seasoning (or 1 oz packet)
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 can (16 oz) refried beans
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup salsa
  • 4 oz can diced green chiles, undrained
  • 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Method
 

  1. Brown the ground beef and onion in a large skillet over medium-high heat for about 8 minutes; drain excess fat.
  2. Stir in the taco seasoning and water, and simmer for 2 minutes until reduced and glossy.
  3. Add the refried beans, cream cheese, salsa, and green chiles; stir for 3 minutes over medium-low heat until combined and creamy.
  4. Add the cheddar cheese a handful at a time, stirring over low heat for 2 minutes until fully melted and smooth.
  5. Transfer to a serving bowl, top with cilantro and jalapeño, and serve hot with tortilla chips.

Notes

This dip can be kept warm in a small slow cooker set to low for up to 2 hours. If it thickens, stir in a tablespoon of milk to loosen it.
