Crockpot Doritos Dip, I have never had anything like this recipe until recently. I had a crockpot party and a co-worker brought this. I am not a huge fan of this dip, but my husband is obsessed with it! Any time I make it, everyone else always loves it and wants to know the recipe. This is the perfect game day recipe. It would be a nice change up from the typical Rotel dip everyone makes. This recipe to me seems like the perfect dip to make a super spicy dip with. If you like spicy food, reference my tips below to make this spicy.

Directions for Crockpot Doritos Dip

Prep Time: 20 minutes / Cook Time: 2 -3 hours on low

1. Remove stem and seeds from pepper. Then dice pepper and onion. I put it all in a food processor to finely chop the peppers and onions.
2. In a saute pan, add your meat, peppers, and onions.
3. Turn burner to medium high heat. Mash your meat up with the meat chopper. Continue cooking until meat has browned.
4. Drain if needed.
5. Dump meat into a crockpot. Turn crockpot on low.
6. Add the chili powder, taco sauce, and cheese.
7. Stir everything up and place the lid on the crockpot.
8. Stir occasionally. It is ready to serve once cheese is completely melted.

Variations

• Using Italian sausage gives this more flavor and a bit more spice. You could also use ground turkey or chicken.
• You could use hot/spicy Italian sausage to give it more heat.
• Adding some Cayenne pepper will also add heat.
• I use mild taco sauce, but you can easily add hot taco sauce to add more heat.
