Ingredients

...for dip:

  • 8 ounces sharp Cheddar cheese cut in cubes
  • 16 ounces natural American cheese cut in cubes
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 14.5 ounces can organic fire-roasted diced tomatoes with green chilies don't drain

...for taco meat:

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 Tablespoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 Tablespoon onion powder
  • 1/2 Tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Add cheese cubes along with your milk, can of tomatoes & green chilies (don’t drain), and cumin into a large, microwave-safe bowl. Give it a stir.
  2. Microwave on high, two minutes at a time, about 5 intervals for a total of 10 minutes. Stirring in between each 2 minute cook time. It’s done when you stir and there are no more lumps of cheese and it’s all incorporated and creamy.
