Everyone knows that no list of food for football is complete without an ooey-gooey cheesy dip. This spicy and hearty cheeseburger dip recipe certainly ticks that box! Serve it at your next party, summer cookout, or Super Bowl event, and watch it disappear in an instant. No one can resist the mouthwatering combination of Velveeta, mozzarella cheese, ground beef, diced tomatoes, and green chiles. When combined, this dip tastes like a gooey cheeseburger. It sounds weird, but trust me when I say this party dip tastes delicious!
Now, many recipes for cheeseburger dip use a slow cooker. But we’re keeping things super simple today (sorry ) and just microwaving the ingredients together. Yep, once you cook the beef, it takes just 5 minutes to combine the ingredients and melt that ooey-gooey cheese in the microwave. You’ll be serving it alongside crackers and veggies like broccoli, cauliflower, and carrot sticks in under 30 minutes. That’s my kind of game-day snack!
Thanks to Velveeta for partnering with me on this post and helping me bring you the video in the recipe card below. I hope you enjoy it! P.S. Another one of my favorite Velveeta recipes is my Velveeta bowtie pasta salad.

Hello Christy!
Yummy! Maybe I’ll even watch the Super Bowl if I make a batch of your cheesy Velvetta dip! Fantastic video! You’re so fun to watch!
Have a wonderful time at the blog conference!
Why don’t you use the white part of the scallions?
My kids and husband don’t like them. Me, I’d eat ’em like apples! lol
I’ve been meaning to respond to this. Have you ever tried dippin’ the white parts of the green onions into red-wine vinegar dressing? We used to sit and eat those like candy when I was a kid. We had Jewel T dressings. I’ll just bet there aren’t many out there who remember Jewel T!
I love your TV presenter voice!
You are making me hungry. I would not mind tossing in a can of rinsed black beans too. I am not a football fan either but I love the spirit of the thing! Have a safe trip.
Christy, I love this recipe. My sister makes it with cream cheese as a different twist. It is super good. We call it ” Looks bad, taste good” dip!

Christy,
This can also be made in the Crockpot! I’ve made it for years and using the low setting (after the cheese is melted)keeps this warm and gooey for hours.
We also like to eat this with Frito Scoops (or any version of taco chip you prefer.
looks so good. I will have to make it this weekend>
