Ingredients

Instructions

  • Heat a large skillet over a medium high heat.
  • Once hot, add the diced onions. Sauté for 5 minutes to soften, then add the ground beef.
  • Break apart the ground beef and brown. Sprinkle taco seasoning evenly over the beef.
  • Pour in the pepperoncini juice and stir until the seasoning has dissolved into the meat and onions, about 5 minutes.
  • Drain the liquid from the beef.
  • Lightly spray the slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray. Add the canned refried beans to the bottom and evenly spread.
  • Next, pour the nacho cheese over the refried beans and spread into an even layer.
  • Top the cheese with the taco meat.
  • Combine fiesta corn, tomatoes and green chiles, pickled jalapeno, pepperoncini, mayo, and taco sauce in a medium mixing bowl. Mix well and spread evenly over the taco meat. Smooth the surface with a spatula.
  • Add the dried chiles and a few slices of pepperoncini on top.
  • Cover and cook on low for 4 hours, or high for 2 hours.
  • Remove and discard the chiles. Garnish with chopped cilantro.
  • Serve with tortilla chips.

Notes

Grease the slow cooker: It's best to spray nonstick cooking spray in the slow cooker so the dip doesn't stick.
Adjust the seasonings: Feel free to spice this crockpot taco dip up or reduce the amount of spice if you prefer. You can also make other tweaks, omitting any of the layers you don't want or adding new ones in.
Add the cilantro last: Adding the cilantro on top just before serving ensures it doesn't wilt.
