Preparation

1 Brown meat in skillet. Add salt and pepper. Drain fat. Barely cover with water and simmer, covered, 30 minutes or until water is absorbed. Add remaining ingredients; simmer 15-20 minutes or until potatoes and veggies are tender. When vegetables are tender, add refried beans and simmer until hot. Serve hot with chips. Chop vegetables and potatoes coarsely for a dinner meal, chop fairly finely or grate to serve as a dip. 2 I'm not sure how you would adapt this to a crock pot, but if you are serving this as a dip, you could always cook it first, then keep it hot in a crock pot. 3 Both of the following are baked in a 300 degree oven for about 45-60 minutes. 4 Rotel Cheese Dip1 can Rotel Tomatoes with Peppers (this is a spicy tomato/pepper combo) 5 1 round loaf Sourdough or French bread, top slice off and insides removed 1 long loaf Sourdough or French bread, but into pieces 2 lbs Velveeta cheese. 6 In microwave or double boiler, melt Velveeta cheese with Rotel Tomatoes. Mix thoroughly, then fill round loaf of bread with mixture. Top with piece you sliced off. Double wrap in heavy duty foil. Bake 45 minutes until bread is hot and cheese mixture is bubbly. Serve with pieces of bread cut from long loaf. 7 Brie in Bread1 round loaf Sourdough or French bread, top slice off and insides removed 1 long loaf Sourdough or French bread, but into pieces 2 1/2 to 3 lbs brie cheese. 8 1 to 2 Tablespoons Butter (not margarine) 9 Cut top off of round loaf of bread and remove insides. Reserve. Lightly butter inside of round loaf and inside of lid. Cut brie into chunks and fill cavity of bread. Place top on loaf and double wrap in heavy duty foil. Bake approximately 1 hour in 300 degree oven. Serve with pieces of bread cut from long loaf and from inside of round loaf. Put a butter or cheese knife in brie for spreading melted brie on bread. 10 Pretzel Dip1 (8-oz) Cream Cheese (softened) 11 1 C.
