When it comes to hosting, it truly does not get easier (or tastier!) than Velveeta and Rotel cheese dip. Game night, Taco Tuesday, or just wanting a delicious cheesy starter–any occasion is an excellent reason to whip up this crockpot queso dip! All you have to do is brown the beef, then throw everything into a slow cooker an hour and a half before serving.
