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.

Transparency Disclosure: I have partnered with VELVEETA to serve as one of five VELVEETA it! Kitchenistas. I have been compensated for my time commitment to the program, which includes vlogging about my cooking experiences with VELVEETA and developing one original VELVEETA-based recipe. I have also been compensated for the food purchased for my VELVEETA vlogs. However, my opinions are entirely my own and I have not been paid to publish positive comments – because that wouldn’t be right anyway. 🙂
*Hires Ricky Martin to sing “Livin Velveeta Loca’ to Christy for her birthday.
*Hires Charro” to dance to Ricky Martin’s newest Velveeta song with him and BillGent ….coooochie-cooooohie-style to fully entertain Christy for her Feb 11th birthday this yr.
I still remember the first time Charro was on Johnny Carson. My mom busted out laughing and yelled..”BILL! You gotta come see this!”
Looks very tasty, Christy! I bet you could add in another half lb of hamburger, a little milk/water to thin it a bit, and cooked pasta (shells, macaroni or whatever you have on hand) and then you would have a delicious dinner. I know you will have a wonderful time in Nashville with your fellow bloggers. Enjoy! How could you not? Harry Connick, Jr. will be singing. 😀
Can I just say I think Velveeta is conspiring against me? I want to make every recipe that has been posted so far and I am going to gain so much weight.
Have fun and be careful and I’ll try not to be too jealous. 🙂
As a football family, especially for Super Bowls, a spicy Velveeta dip is a must! We love love love Kraft products too! Thank you Ricky for a great job with your “mad skills” on the camera and Christy’s easy-to-follow instructions.
I love to use kitchen shears too, and I do on everything I can to save time, space and cleanup using cutting boards. I like to say “Presentation is everything” when making a dish to share so the green onion pieces on top will be perfect to make it more appealing. Add the healthy carrots and celery pieces on the platter and this looks like a winner!
I am sooo proud of you being chosen again as one of the Velveeta Kitchenista’s! Thanks again! Love ya!
Christy, our own little cheese queen. I love this dip. I sometimes substitute sausage for the hamburger meat.
Its always the standby for every Church gathering ever done. Good stuff Maynard!
Have a great time at the conference and charm their socks off. I’m waiting here at home for people who say they are coming by to buy my freezer and don’t show up lol Fun!
YUM!!! I have been waiting for you to post this recipe! I have got to make this! Thank you soooo much!
One of the always great things about the recipes you bring us is that they are simple and quick to do. This is very similar to something my mother used to make back when i was a kid…which I then continued on into adulthood with my own little modifications. I won’t be having any this year but then again I won’t be watching the game either. lol But you’re right, even if you don’t watch football, the food is still oh so good!!
Thanks for the video! Look forward to seeing more Velveeta recipes from you!
