Taco Dip Recipe - Only a few ingredients and it's done in less than 10 minutes! | browneyedbaker.com

When I was a kid, I was absolutely infatuated with tacos. If we were at the mall and stopping to eat at the food court, I always wanted to go to Taco Bell. If my mom asked me what I wanted for dinner, the answer was always tacos. I couldn’t get enough of that seasoned beef in a crunchy shell and topped with lettuce, cheese and taco sauce, thank you very much.

Therefore, it should come as no surprise that I have been in love with this taco dip since elementary school.

While I love the simplicity of lettuce, tomato and cheese, you could add things like black beans, corn, green chilies… whatever you love to top your tacos with is fair game here. I highly recommend using your own <a href=”https://www.browneyedbaker.com/homemade-taco-seasoning-mix/”>homemade taco seasoning mix</a>, but store-bought packets will worth as well.

This dip has been around for as long as I can remember and one that my mom made often for get-togethers; everything from New Year’s Eve to Fourth of July. It was always a huge hit and as an adult, I’ve called it lunch on more than one occasion. After spending so much time talking about tacos, I’m inspired to revive a weekly taco night!
