Ingredients
- 1 lb. lean ground beef, or any ground meat you prefer
- 1 tsp. kosher salt
- 2 tsp. chili powder
- 1 tsp. ground cumin
- 1 tsp. granulated onion, or onion powder
- 3 cloves garlic, crushed, may substitute 1 tsp. granulated garlic or garlic powder
- 1 jalapeño, seeds and membranes removed, minced, may substitute diced green chilies, if preferred
- 1/4 cup beef broth
- 15 oz. can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 15 oz. jar of your favorite salsa
- 4 oz. cream cheese, room temperature, cubed
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar
- Your favorite Mexican toppings, such as salsa, chopped scallions, sliced black olives, sour cream, shredded cheese
Instructions
- Using the sauté setting on your Instant Pot, add the ground beef, salt, and spices to the pot as soon as it’s nicely preheated. Crumble the beef, cooking it fully until no pink remains; drain any excess fats.
- Top the ground beef with the garlic and jalapeño, then add the broth. Layer the black beans over the beef, then top the beans with salsa. **Do not stir or combine the ingredients together - leave them layered!
- Lock the Instant Pot lid into place; turn the valve to the "sealed" position. Using the manual button, choose High Pressure, setting the timer for 5 minutes time, bringing the Instant Pot to full pressure.
- When the timer sounds, use a natural release for 5 minutes, then a quick release if any pressure remains in the Instant Pot.
- Unlock and remove the lid; add the cream cheese cubes and shredded cheese, gently stirring the dip until well combined and creamy.
Notes
**Please Note: Cooking time stated does not include the amount of time it takes to bring the Instant Pot to full pressure since this can vary based on the temperature of your ingredients, size of Instant Pot, and quantity of food inside the Instant Pot.
