Cook the Beef
In a skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef. Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.

Add Seasoning
Once the beef is browned, add the taco seasoning and the diced tomatoes with green chilies to the skillet. Stir well to combine and let it cook for an additional 3-4 minutes.

Incorporate Cream Cheese
Lower the heat and add the cream cheese to the beef mixture. Stir continuously until the cream cheese is fully melted and combined with the beef, creating a creamy mixture.
