TEXAS Hot Beef Dip!! Texas PARTY must!!



This Hot Beef Dip is Soooo addicting!!   (and Texans LOVE their Beef!!)  We have to make it for EVERY holiday and special family get together, as well as when we have friends over for the big game!!  I SWEAR, all men love this!  (the ladies, too!)  You can eat this dip with Chips, or go low carb, and eat it with zucchini slices!!  It's so yummy, my boys would actually be really upset if I didn't make it for a get together!!  :)

TEXAS HOT BEEF DIP! ~ Texas addiction!!!
YUM!!!  Boys digging in!!

HOT BEEF DIP~
1 pound ground beef~ lean
1  8 oz. block of Philadelphia Cream Cheese
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup Ketchup
1  8 oz. can tomato sauce
1/3 cup parmesan cheese, grated (we just use parm. from shake bottle)
1 medium onion, minced
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp pepper~ or to taste
3-4 nice dashes of red pepper flakes
1 tsp sugar
Sounds a little...JUST a little, redneck-like, :) but we serve this dip with  Nacho Cheese Doritos!!  It's AMAZING with these chips!  (BTW, I love rednecks!  Fun, awesome, real peeps!)
Cook up ground beef with minced onion, and garlic~ drain fat when cooked up!
After you drain out any fat, add all the rest of ingredients and mix well!  Cook on low, til all is melted, and nice and HOT!


We put the dip into a small crock pot, to serve, and it keeps the dip nice and warm!!


The family and friends on low carb diets use sliced zucchini instead of chips, and it's still AWESOME!!  HOPE Y'ALL LOVE THIS EASY, yet AMAZING DIP!!
