Ingredients in Cheeseburger Dip
- Meat: Use lean ground beef in this recipe (80/20) and drain any grease once browned. Italian sausage or leftover taco meat are also great additions.
- Cheese: Cream cheese and Velveeta come together to create the base of this dip for the best texture and flavor. Velveeta can be replaced with an additional 1 ½ cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese.
- Flavor: Ketchup, mustard, and BBQ sauce add a classic “burger” flavor.
- Burger Toppings: Top cheeseburger dip with shredded cheddar cheese, French fried onions, and sesame seeds, and then add your fave burger toppings.
- Pickles, bacon bits, chopped yellow onions, diced tomatoes, sliced black olives, jalapenos, or green chilies are also great toppings.
