Notes
- Choose quality cheese: Velveeta works best for a smooth, creamy dip, but you can use other cheeses like cheddar if you prefer.
- Customize the heat: For more spice, use a hotter variety of Rotel or add chopped jalapeños.
- Use ground beef: For a meatier dip, brown ground beef and mix it in for extra protein and flavor.
- Stir frequently: Keep stirring the dip while it melts to prevent the cheese from burning.
- Serve immediately: This dip is best served hot, so be sure to enjoy it while it's fresh and creamy!
