- 1 can 10 oz diced tomatoes with green chilies (like Rotel)

Instructions
Cook the Meat (if using):
- Brown ground beef or turkey in a skillet over medium heat, drain any fat.
Add to Crockpot:
- Place Velveeta, shredded cheddar, salsa, diced tomatoes, sour cream, taco seasoning, and cooked meat (if using) in the crockpot.
Cook:
- Set the crockpot to low and let it cook for 2-3 hours. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Serve:
- Once melted and creamy, switch the crockpot to "warm" and serve with tortilla chips, crackers, or veggies.
Notes
- Can be made vegetarian by skipping the meat and adding black beans or corn.
- Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3-4 days. Reheat on low in the crockpot or microwave.
- Want more heat? Add diced jalapeños or a splash of hot sauce!
