Make this quick and cheesy Rotel Dip using only three ingredients. This simple recipe is perfect for game days, parties, or when you need a fast crowd pleaser.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 (10 ounce) can Rotel Original Diced Tomatoes and Green Chilies, undrained
  • 1 (10 ounce) can Ro-Tel Mild Diced Tomatoes and Green Chilies, undrained

Instructions

  1. Combine the softened cream cheese and both cans of Rotel (including the liquid) in a small saucepan.
  2. Heat the mixture over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until the cream cheese is fully melted and the dip is smooth and hot. This usually takes about 10 minutes.
  3. Transfer the dip to a serving bowl.
  4. Serve immediately with tortilla chips, crackers, or vegetable sticks.

Notes

  • For a slow cooker version, combine all ingredients in a small slow cooker and cook on LOW for 1-2 hours or until fully melted and smooth. Stir occasionally.
  • If you prefer a thicker dip, drain some of the liquid from the Rotel cans before adding them to the mixture.
  • This dip is a great base. You can add 1 pound of cooked ground beef or sausage for a heartier version.
