Cheeseburger Dip - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 small sweet onion (such as Vidalia(R)), minced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
3/4 cup chili sauce
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste
1/2 cup pasteurized process cheese spread (such as Cheez Whiz(R))
1 small head iceberg lettuce, finely shredded
2 tomatoes, chopped (optional)
2 Kosher dill pickles, chopped (optional)

Preparation

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir sweet onion and garlic in the hot oil until the onion is tender, about 5 minutes. Break ground beef into the skillet; cook and stir until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes more.
Reduce heat to medium-low. Stir chili sauce, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, chili powder, salt, and pepper into the beef mixture. Pour cheese spread into the skillet; cook and stir until the cheese spread is melted evenly through the beef mixture, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer beef mixture to a serving dish.
Layer lettuce, tomatoes, and pickles atop the beef mixture to serve.
