What Can I Serve This With?

My go to for this is usually tortilla chips but pretzel chips, crackers or even some veggies like celery sticks would all be great to use.

Notes

You can make this with either a can of Rotel or salsa. I’ve done it both ways and to me, they both taste pretty similar. I like to serve this in a bowl with some sour cream. It’s so delicious and a hit every time.

    I guess we're just supposed to guess how much ground beef or am I missing the ratios? I don't see them anywhere
