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

Instructions

  • Add 1 pound lean ground beef and 1 small onion, to a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat. Cook until the ground beef is no longer pink and the onion is tender. Drain any excess fat.
  • Add 1 (15-ounce) can red enchilada sauce, 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, 1 (14.5- ounce) can diced tomatoes, 1 (15-ounce) can corn, and 1 (3-ounce) can sliced olives. Bring the mixture to a boil and simmer on medium heat for 3-5 minutes or until the sauce starts to thicken.
  • Stir in 1 of the 2 cups shredded Colby-jack cheese, and stir until melted, then season with 1 teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper.
  • Preheat the oven to broil, then pour the dip mixture into a 1-quart baking dish. Top with the remaining 1 cup shredded cheese.
  • Place the dip in the oven for 1-3 minutes to broil the cheese on top! Watch it closely, the cheese will melt quickly.
  • Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro. Serve immediately with corn chips or tortilla chips!
