Easy Baked Taco Dip Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, at room temperature
• 1 pound lean ground beef
• 1 cup water
• 1 (1 ounce) package taco seasoning mix
• 1.5 cups salsa
• 1.5 cups shredded Cheddar cheese

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2. Spread cream cheese evenly into an 8x8 inch baking dish.
3. In a large skillet, cook and crumble ground beef over medium-high heat until browned and cooked through, about 5 to 10 minutes. Drain any excess grease. Stir in water and taco seasoning mix; simmer until most of the liquid has evaporated, approximately 3 to 5 minutes.
4. Evenly spread the beef mixture over the cream cheese layer. Top with salsa, and then sprinkle generously with Cheddar cheese.
5. Bake in the preheated oven until the dip is bubbly and the cheese is fully melted, around 20 minutes.
