How to Make Awesome Taco Dip
- In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and sour cream. Mix well until smooth. Spread evenly in a single layer onto a round serving platter. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef. Drain off any excess grease. Reduce heat to low and stir in the taco seasoning, tomato sauce, salsa, and Tabasco sauce. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated through and flavors have melded. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
- Spread the cooled meat mixture evenly over the chilled cream cheese layer.
- Sprinkle the shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes, sliced black olives, and jalapeños evenly over the meat layer.
- Top with the shredded cheese.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to blend and the dip to chill thoroughly.
- Serve with tortilla chips or nacho chips. Enjoy!
