Ground Beef Cheddar Dip

 

We have been watching a lot of football lately and while our teams are not doing so well, at least we can enjoy the food. We are big Los Angeles Rams fans and while we are happy to have them back in LA, it would be nice to see them score a little more. Personally, I think they need a new coach.

Anyways, back to the food.

I always like a nice simple snack or tasty appetizer to go with my TV viewing. This warm hamburger cheese dip a a nice one for those chilly days and evenings.

    So... oddly, I don't like beans.. Think this would still work without them?

      Yes, I would totally try it with just beef & cheese. You may have to up the cheese amount a bit for balance.

Hi, I'm Raquel! I am a self-proclaimed foodie and have enjoyed cooking and baking since I was little. I loved baking cookies with my mother and grandma as a child, and later making dinners for my parents to foster my passion while in high school. I also had a passion for organizing and keeping things tidy.
