New Recipe: Dana's Famous Cheeseburger Dip

Happy Tasty Tuesday!

You guys are in for a real treat today because one of my best friends Dana has agreed to share her recipe for cheeseburger dip. This is a serious crowd favorite for all of my friends, whenever we have a get together where we are bringing appetizers or snacks we always ask Dana to make this dip. Basically we ban her from trying any other recipes if it means she won't be making the dip for a special occassion. So after asking her permission she told me I could post the famous recipe on my blog for all of you to enjoy. Sorry in advance for the photo I posted, we always dig into it right away when she puts it out so I didn't get a chance to get a decent picture of the dip....

Ingredients:

• 1lb ground beef
• 3 garlic cloves, chopped
• 1 tbsp chili powder
• 1 tbsp ground mustard
• 1/2 of a red onion
• 1 brick of plain cream cheese
• 1/2 cup BBQ sauce (add more if you're a big fan of BBQ sauce)
• 1/2 package of bacon
• 1 package of shredded cheddar cheese
• Salt/Pepper to taste
• 1 bag of Tostitos chips for dipping

Directions:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees
• Cook ground beef in a frying pan until cooked, then drain the liquid from the pan.
• In a separate pan cook the bacon until crispy, remove bacon and chop it up into pieces.
• Add chopped bacon, garlic, chili powder, ground mustard, BBQ sauce, red onion and salt/pepper to taste into frying pan with ground beef and mix together on low heat until everything is combined.
• In an oven safe pie dish spread 1 brick of plain cream cheese into bottom of pan.
• Pour beef mixture on top of cream cheese spread.
• Cover with shredded cheddar cheese.
• Bake in oven for about 15 minutes or until the cheese is completely melted.
• Each until your stomach hurts.

Thanks again Dana for letting me share this.
