Preparation

  • In a large skillet, set the heat to medium-high. Add the ground beef, breaking it up as it cooks until the meat is no longer pink (about 7 to 10 minutes). Drain excess grease and transfer the meat into a 6-quart slow cooker.
  • Add the ranch dressing mix, Ro*tel tomatoes (with juices), and the beef broth to the slow cooker.

Cooking

  • Cover the slow cooker and set it to LOW. Let it cook for approximately 6 to 8 hours, allowing the flavors to meld.
  • About 30 minutes before serving, stir in the cream cheese and shredded cheddar cheese. Mix until well combined and melted.

Serving

  • Serve hot, optionally garnished with fresh cilantro, avocado slices, jalapeño slices, or a dollop of sour cream.
