BEEF DIP
This is a fairly easy to make snack either for the office or home parties.  We eat it every
Thanksgiving and Christmas during the snack time.  Snack time is that time where there are
several hours to go before the big meal is on the table - or, in our family, we celebrate Snack
Day it the night before Christmas Day.  This is when we dig out all the neat snack recipes from
years past  - homemade garlic chip dip anyone? - and enjoy.  Sometimes it is even healthy -
peanut butter stuffed celery and carrots with Ranch Dressing dip.  As time went by, things
were added (Velveeta Rotel Cheese Dip, of course) and it is always good!

BEEF DIP

3-4 Teaspoons Butter or Margarine
1 Cup chopped pecans

Melt the butter in skillet and saute the pecans for a few minutes.  Be careful not to burn them.  
Remove pecans from skillet.

Add one (1) pound hamburger to skillet and brown.

Combine in large bowl with mixer:

1/4 Cup Milk
1 8-Ounce Container Sour Cream
2 8-Ounce Cream Cheese
4 Teaspoons Minced or Chopped Onion (dehydrated kind)
1 Teaspoon Garlic Salt

Stir in by hand the:

Browned Hamburger
Sauteed Pecans

Grease a 9x13 baking dish and pour the combined ingredients into it.  Bake in oven at 350
degrees for 20 minutes (until heated through and through).  

Serve this dip with crackers.


When I first tasted this recipe at an office party, it was made with 2-2 1/2 ounces dried beef
(the red kind that comes in the jar).  I found it too salty and substituted hamburger - the
family likes hamburger much better.
