Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 1 medium onion diced
- 2 tablespoons HOT taco seasoning
- 1 can Ro*Tel Fire-Roasted Diced Tomatoes and Green Chilies 10 oz.
- 1 box Velveeta Original Cheese, cut into cubes 32 oz.
- Tortilla chips or cut-up veggies for serving
Instructions
- Turn Instant Pot on "Saute" and wait until HOT.
- Add the ground beef, onion, seasonings, green chilies, and tomatoes. Cook, while crumbling the beef, until no longer pink.
- Add the Velveeta into the pot. DO NOT STIR. Place lid on and turn vent into the sealing position.
- Cook on manual high pressure for 4 minutes.
- When timer is up, preform a quick release. Open pot and immediately stir in cheese. Keep stirring until everything is well combined.
- Serve with tortilla chips or cut-up veggies.
Notes
- This can be made on the stovetop in the same fashion as mentioned in the recipe. Be sure to melt the cheese over a low temperature, stirring often. You can also make this in the slow cooker. Brown the ground beef with the onion and seasoning, then transfer it to a slow cooker with the remaining ingredients. At this point, it doesn’t really need to “cook” – it just needs to warm enough to melt the cheese.
