Hot Pimento Cheese Dip in a Crock Pot

Turn a slow cooker to warm and add 10 ounces of pimento cheese.
Heat olive oil in a 10 inch skillet over medium-high heat, add onion and sauté until tender. Add meat and cook until browned. Drain excess fat. Add cilantro, sugar and seasonings. Simmer for a few minutes. If using a slow cooker, add the meat mixture to the slow cooker.
Drain the beans and rinse well. Drain the corn and tomatoes and add to the meat mixture. Stir all ingredients until combined. Add salt and pepper to taste. Heat for 10-15 minutes.
If cooking on the stove, add the pimento cheese to the meat mixture and stir until melted. Once melted, add the drained beans, corn and tomatoes and mix to combine. Let simmer for 5-10 minutes until heated through.
If serving as a dip, try doubling the pimento cheese for a cheesier dip.
