INGREDIENTS
- 1 lb. ground beef or turkey

Directions
- In a heavy bottom skillet over medium heat, sauté meat until browned. Drain and set aside.
- While meat is browning, dice veggies.
- In a 9x13 temp-tations® baker, spread cream cheese evenly over bottom.
- In a small bowl, mix browned meat with Beef It Up temp-tations® seasoning and a jar of salsa. Spread evenly over cream cheese.
- Layer peppers, onions, and tomatoes in that order.
- Top with cheese and bake in a preheated 325°F oven until cheese melts and layers are bubbly.
- Serve with your favorite chips or pitas.
* If you don’t have Beef it Up temp-tations® seasoning blend you can use a packet of taco or chili seasoning.
** I use medium salsa but it’s your choice—hot or mild are good, too.
