Notes

You can use ground turkey or chicken if you prefer.
A thick jarred salsa works best.
I highly recommend shredding your own cheese and not using pre-shredded cheese from the package.
I like to use a cast-iron skillet for this delicious taco dip because it holds the heat and keeps the dip warm but a baking dish also works.
A great way to use leftover taco meat if you have it.
