Stages of cooking
-
Fry ground beef for a while until it gets light brown.
-
While the beef is frying, whip up the next few ingredients. Take a deep bowl and mix cream cheese, cottage cheese, chili powder, and 0.25 cup of Ortega taco sauce in it.
-
Now, take a glass pan and spread the cream cheese mixture evenly across the bottom of the pan. Do not use a metal pan, because you will put it into a microwave oven later. Meanwhile, set the pan aside.
-
Your beef should be ready by now.
-
Add the rest of the taco sauce and taco seasoning to the beef and keep frying the meat on medium fire.
-
As soon as the sauce becomes dense, layer it on the top of the cream cheese mixture.
-
Dredge the dish with a nice layer of grated cheese and place it into the microwave oven until the cheese melts. This may take up to 4-5 minutes.
-
Now, take your tacos or chips and enjoy. If you wish, you can top the dish with any stuff you like, such as onions, lettuce, green onions, jalapenos etc. Bon appétit!
