Another winner here TA. I love these simple to put together kind of snack. Heck this could nearly be a meal. I was thinking I'd use it in a taco salad next!! Congrats on your football pool win.

I was looking for a taco dip that wasn't loaded with sour cream and cheese, and came across this. I'm so glad I did! I had a pound of ground beef so I doubled the recipe, and used half immediately and froze the rest to defrost in the future for a quick snack. I topped with just a sprinkle of cheese because DH can't handle much dairy. I garnished with guacamole. Really good!

Great dip! I made a change and used Rotel for the diced tomatoes. I served this with the topping of avocados and green onion and served salsa and sour cream as well. Goes great with a cold beer! We really enjoyed this, thanks for posting!
