Ingredients

The following ingredients have 10 Servings
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 small onion (chopped)
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 3 (15-ounce) cans black eyed peas (rinsed & drained)
  • 2 (10-ounce) cans mild Rotel (drained (any brand diced tomatoes and green chiles))
  • 1 (4-ounce) can chopped green chiles (drained)
  • 16 ounces Velveeta cheese*

Instruction

  • Melt butter in a medium to large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and sauté until soft and translucent. Add garlic and continue to sauté for about 1 minute more. Stir in all other ingredients. Continue to cook and stir until cheese melts and mixture becomes smooth, about 5 minutes.
  • Transfer dip to a serving dish or small crockpot to keep the dip warm. Garnish with fresh cilantro, diced tomato and green onion, if you'd like. Serve with tortilla chips and enjoy!
