TEXAS BEST CHEESE DIP (CHILE CON QUESO)



Texas Best Cheese Dip (Chile Con Queso) image

This is a delicious cheese dip that my daughter makes. The cream cheese gives it a wonderful consistency. All the fresh ingredients make this a dip that you will be asked for over and over again! Please note I have put "to taste" on alot of the ingredients as it depends on how big your bunch of veggies are. If you actually get lucky enough to have any left it keeps in the fridge a good while and reheats great. I usually serve/take this dip in a crockpot so it stays warm.

Tips:

- Use high-quality cheese: A good queso dip starts with good cheese. Use a blend of cheeses that will melt smoothly and have a flavorful taste. A popular combination is cheddar, Monterey Jack, and pepper Jack. - Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the dip, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the cheese from melting evenly and could result in a lumpy dip. - Stir constantly: Stir the dip constantly while it's cooking. This will help to prevent the cheese from burning and will also help to create a smooth and creamy dip. - Add your favorite mix-ins: Feel free to add your favorite mix-ins to the dip. Some popular options include diced tomatoes, green onions, cooked bacon, and chili peppers. - Serve with your favorite dippers: Serve the dip with your favorite dippers, such as tortilla chips, bread, or vegetables. - Make it ahead of time: Queso dip can be made ahead of time and reheated when you're ready to serve it. This makes it a great option for parties or potlucks. ###
