Baked Taco Dip

Step 1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step 2
Spread cream cheese in an even layer in the bottom of an 8×8-inch baking dish.

Step 3
Cook and stir beef in a skillet over medium-high heat until browned and cooked through, 5 to 10 minutes. Add water and taco seasoning mix; stir. Simmer until most of the liquid evaporates, 3 to 5 minutes.

Step 4
Spread meat mixture over the cream cheese in the baking dish. Pour salsa over meat mixture. Top with Cheddar cheese.

Step 5
Bake taco dip in preheated oven until bubbling and cheese is melted, about 20 minutes.
