Christmas Cheese Dip

I don't have much time tonight to write on the blog so I thought I would put the recipe up for a simple dip that I created for my family's Christmas Eve party.
This Christmas was very special because it was my twin cousins Francesco and Chiara's first Christmas. They came to the party in reindeer antlers! So cute! Spending time with family and friends is the greatest Christmas gift and blessing that I could receive. A gift that I gave my family was this super delicious cheese dip, which they all loved! I hope you all enjoy the recipe.

Christmas Cheese Dip

Ingredients:
1 lb- Ground Beef
1 medium Onion diced
1 bar- Velveeta Cheese (I use the 2% Velveeta because it makes you feel less guilty)
1 can- HOT Rotel Tomatoes drained
1 can- Original Rotel Tomatoes drained
6 oz- Frozen Spinach, thawed and drained

Directions:
Cook ground beef and onion in a skillet until browned. Drain Well.
In a crockpot, add diced Velveeta, Rotel Tomatoes, hamburger and onion, and spinach.
Cook on low, stirring occasionally, until cheese melts. Set crockpot on warm for serving. Serve with tortilla chips.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year Everyone! Wow 2010, it's here! I can't believe it! It seems like only a short time ago we were all worried about Y2K and the world ending! The decade flew by! Whew...I can tell I'm getting old!

Like many of you I have set New Year's Resolutions, many of which I will forget I had by February. However, one of my resolutions this year is to put more effort into my blog, and I am determined not to fail this one. I'm sorry for those of you that have been checking the blog and being disappointed in my effort to add to it. Thank You to my readers who have recently held me accountable for my laziness (you know who you are). I have a feeling that 2010 is going to be the year for the Domestic Diva Kim Blog!

Stay tuned for great recipes and glimpses into the mind of a Domestic Diva!

Hot & Spicy Queso Dip

Hot & Spicy Queso Dip

The perfect dip for parties, tailgates, and any get together. Your guests will not be able to get enough! This dip is also the perfect companion for Mexican meal nights.

Ingredients:

1/2 Block of Velveeta Cheese diced into smalled cubes
1- 10 ounce can Rotel Hot Diced Tomatoes drained*

Directions:

1. Combine ingredients in a microwavable bowl.

2. Microwave for two minutes. Stir and then microwave in 30 second intervals until dip is completely melted.

3. Serve hot with tortilla chips.***


*Rotel Original Diced Tomatoes will make a milder queso dip.
**Splurge on the Velveeta brand cheese. I have found that generic processed cheese does not melt as well as Velveeta. I prefer to use Velveeta 2% Cheese to save on fat and calories.
***Great Value Brand Tortilla Chips from Walmart go great with this dip and are the cheapest tortilla chips on the market at $1.75 per bag.
