Base Ingredients

1 cup cream cheese For that rich, creamy base.
1 cup sour cream Adds a tangy flavor and a smooth texture.
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese Essential for that cheesy goodness.
1 cup salsa Provides flavor and moisture; can be custom to your spice preference.
1/2 cup cooked ground beef Optional; a hearty addition for meat lovers.

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a mixing bowl, blend the cream cheese and sour cream until smooth and creamy.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and salsa until evenly combined.
If you're using ground beef, fold it in at this stage.
Transfer the mixture into an oven-safe dish and smooth it out evenly.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the dip is hot and bubbly.
Once out of the oven, serve with tortilla chips, crackers, or fresh veggies.

For serving, pair with tortilla chips, crackers, or fresh veggie sticks. Store leftovers in an airtight container for 3-4 days in the fridge.
