Taste of Home Cheesy BBQ Dip

I’m always looking for new dishes that I can take on the road with us in the Motorhome. This Taste of Home recipe is a hearty snack after a busy day. I made this on the grill but the oven directions are just as easy. I have made this a couple of times. The second time I made it I added diced onions and tomatoes but left off the french fried onions. Both ways were very good, no complaints and the plate was cleaned. This can also be made with either BBQ beef or BBQ pork. I made it with pork as that’s what my grocery store had, so use whatever you can find.

INGREDIENTS

• 1 8oz. Package of cream cheese, softened (I used whipped cream cheese)
• 1 15 Oz. Package of refrigerated fully cooked barbecue shredded beef or pork
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1/2 cup chopped red onion
• 3/4 cup French fried onions
• 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
• tortilla chips

DIRECTIONS

Spread cream cheese onto the bottom of a greased 9-inch pie plate (I used a tin pie plate for the grill). Spread the cooked beef or pork over the cream cheese layer. Sprinkle with the cheddar cheese, diced red onion, and tomatoes.

OVEN DIRECTIONS

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake until heated through, about 15 minutes. Sprinkle with French fried onions and bake an additional 5 minutes. Serve with tortilla chips.

GRILL DIRECTIONS

Turn your grill onto the lowest heat setting. For my grill, it is about 300 degrees. All grills will be slightly different so do check often as to not burn the bottom. Place the pie tin on the grill, close the grill lid and let heat through about 10-15 minutes. Add the French fried onions and continue to cook about 5 more minutes with the grill lid down. Serve with tortilla chips.

Enjoy!
