Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb ground beef
1 lb breakfast sausage, regular
1 large onion, chopped
1 can(s) cream of mushroom soup
12 oz picante sauce
2 lb velveeta, cut in pieces
1 small can chopped green chilies
1 small can, chopped jalepenos (optional - use your own judgment)
2 large bags tortilla chips for dipping

Steps:

1. Brown ground beef, sausage and onion in skillet. May be made ahead of time and frozen.
2. Place all ingredients in large crock pot and heat on medium until cheese is melted and all ingredients are mixed together. Stir frequently.
3. Be sure to put crock pot on Low or Warm after cheese melts so dip doesn't burn.
4. Place chips in large bowl or basket next to the crock pot.
5. Provide a large spoon for guests to put dip on small plates so folks won't dip chips into the crock pot. Warning: this won't stop some of 'em.
6. This will become your most requested appetizer at any large gathering.
