on


I'm a big fan of dips. I love the way they bring people together, and I love the way they can be customized to everyone's taste. But my favorite dip of all is the Man's Taco Dip. It's simple to make, but it's always a crowd-pleaser.

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound ground beef

  • 1 onion, chopped

  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped

  • 1 can (15 ounces) black beans, drained and rinsed

  • 1 can (15 ounces) corn, drained

  • 1 packet taco seasoning mix

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

  • 1 cup sour cream

  • 1/2 cup salsa

  • 1/2 cup guacamole

  • Tortilla chips, for serving

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. In a large skillet, brown ground beef over medium heat. Drain off any excess grease.

  3. Add onion and green pepper to the skillet and cook until softened.

  4. Stir in black beans, corn, taco seasoning mix, and 1 cup of the shredded cheese.

  5. Pour mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.

  6. In a small bowl, combine sour cream, salsa, and guacamole.

  7. Spread sour cream mixture over the top of the beef mixture.

  8. Sprinkle with the remaining shredded cheese.

  9. Bake for 20 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly.

  10. Serve with tortilla chips.

Tips:

  • For a spicier dip, add a 1/4 cup of hot sauce to the beef mixture.

  • To make the dip ahead of time, prepare the dip up to step 7 and cover it tightly. Refrigerate for up to 24 hours. When ready to serve, bake in a preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly.

  • Serve the dip with your favorite toppings, such as chopped tomatoes, lettuce, and sour cream.


I first made this dip for a Super Bowl party a few years ago. I was a little nervous, because I had never made it before, but it was a huge hit! Everyone loved the combination of flavors, and it was the perfect snack for watching the game.

Since then, I've made this dip for a lot of different occasions, and it's always been a hit. It's perfect for potlucks, parties, and even just a casual weeknight dinner. It's easy to make, it's delicious, and it's always a crowd-pleaser.

If you're looking for a new and delicious dip to try, I highly recommend the Man's Taco Dip. It's sure to be a hit with everyone at your next gathering!

Here are some additional tips and tricks for making the best Man's Taco Dip:

  • Use a good quality ground beef. The better the beef, the better the dip will taste.

  • Don't overcook the beef. You want it to be browned, but not dry.

  • Drain the black beans and corn before adding them to the dip. This will help to prevent the dip from becoming too runny.

  • Use your favorite taco seasoning mix. There are many different brands available, so experiment until you find one that you like.

  • Top the dip with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include chopped tomatoes, lettuce, sour cream, and guacamole.

  • Serve the dip with tortilla chips. This is the traditional way to eat it, but you can also serve it with other types of chips, such as corn chips or pita chips.

I hope you enjoy this recipe for the Man's Taco Dip! It's a delicious and easy-to-make dip that is perfect for any occasion.
