8 ounces dry-cured Spanish chorizo, finely chopped

06 -
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper

# Steps to Follow:

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and chopped chorizo. Cook, stirring frequently, until beef is browned and crumbled, about 6 to 7 minutes.
02 -
Transfer cooked meat to a paper towel-lined plate and allow to drain for 5 minutes to remove excess grease.

Place drained meat into a 6-quart slow cooker. Stir in cubed processed cheese, diced tomatoes with green chiles, and crushed red pepper.
04 -
Cover and cook on HIGH, stirring occasionally, for about 1 hour or until cheese is fully melted and dip is smooth.
05 -
Switch slow cooker to WARM. Stir occasionally to prevent film from forming on top. Serve with tortilla scoops.
# Extra Tips:
01 -
Keep slow cooker on warm setting after melting cheese to prevent overcooking and separation.
02 -
Stir the dip occasionally while serving to maintain a smooth, creamy texture.
