Hamburger Dip

Something wonderful happened here in our southern subberb. IT SNOWED! There is nothing better than being "snowed in" with lots of yummy comfort foods. I can always remember my mom making chili, hot cocoa and snow cream on snow days. Those were my favorites! I decided to begin a tradition of my own snowy day favorites. I braved the crowds (y'all know us southern folk have no clue how to drive on ice so we stock up so we don't have to venture out) and headed out to get supplies for turkey chili, hamburger dip, snow cream, and chicken pie (see recipe below). I thought those sounded like the perfect combo of warm and comfort!

My recipe for hamburger dip is so easy a trained monkey could make it. My husband loves his cousin's so much I just had to try it on my own. I made it for a tailgate party we hosted at our house a few months ago and it was a hit. It was an experiment and I was so happy it turned out to be great. Today for "lunch" we are going to snack on it while we watch some ACC basketball. Let's see... snow, college basketball, and hamburger dip. I can't think of a better combination! If I were you and I were going to have a Super Bowl party (GO COLTS) I would certainly make this!

Ingredients

1 pkg Velveeta cheese
1 can Rotel tomatoes with green chilis
1 lb hamburger

Directions

Brown hamburger and drain grease. Place all ingredients into a crock pot. Cook on low, stirring occasionally, for about an hour or until the cheese has melted. Serve with your favorite tortilla chips.

*Quick Tip: Add a little sausage for a kick!
