Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 1 small onion, (diced)
- 1 (15-ounce) can red enchilada sauce
- 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, (drained and rinsed)
- 1 (14.5- ounce) can diced tomatoes, (drained)
- 1 (15-ounce) can corn, (drained)
- 1 (3-ounce) can sliced olives
- 2 cups shredded Colby-jack cheese, (divided)
- 1 teaspoon salt, (more if needed)
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
Method
- Cook the lean ground beef with the diced small onion in a large skillet over medium-high heat until the beef loses all its pink and the onion is tender, then drain off the excess fat.
- Add the red enchilada sauce, the drained black beans, the drained diced tomatoes, the drained corn and the sliced olives to the skillet, bring the dip to a boil, and simmer it over medium heat for 3 to 5 minutes, until the sauce begins to thicken.
- Stir 1 cup of the shredded Colby-jack into the beef mixture until it melts through, and season the dip with the salt and pepper.
- Heat the oven broiler, pour the hot dip into a 1-quart baking dish, and scatter the remaining cup of Colby-jack evenly over the surface.
- Broil the enchilada dip for 1 to 3 minutes, watching it closely the whole time, until the cheese on top is fully melted and bubbling, then bring it straight to the table.
