Ingredients

1 pound lean ground beef (can substitute ground turkey)

Spices & Canned Goods

1 (1 oz) package taco seasoning see * Note to substitute individual spices
1 (15 oz) can black beans drained, (can substitute pinto beans or drained chili beans)
1 (15 oz) can fire roasted tomatoes undrained, (similar to Rotel tomatoes)
1 (4 oz) can green chilies undrained

Cheeses

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 (4 oz) package cream cheese (cubed into 1-inch pieces)

For Serving

1 (10 oz) bag corn tortilla chips
Optional: your favorite taco toppings

Instructions

In a large skillet or cast iron Dutch oven, brown ground beef over medium high heat until no longer pink. Drain excess grease, if necessary.
Add spices and canned goods to the meat, stir to combine.
Reduce to medium heat and add the cheeses to the pot. Stir occasionally until cheese is melted and fully incorporated. (In windy conditions you may need to use higher heat and cover the pot to get the cheese to melt.)
Serve over tortilla chips and garnish with your favorite taco toppings.

Notes

*NOTE: Use 1 teaspoon each: garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, chili powder, cumin and 1/2 teaspoon salt if you want to substitute individual flavorful spices for the packaged taco seasoning.

I make this recipe for dinner but it also works as a creamy taco dip appetizer to serve 8-10 people.
