EASY (5 INGREDIENTS) QUESO



Easy (5 Ingredients) Queso image

A really easy queso. Just mix and melt everything together. You don't even drain the canned veggies. I like it particularly because it doesn't turn into wallpaper paste after it cools a bit.

Time 30m

Yield 10-12

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 lbs Velveeta cheese
10 ounces rotel (any variety)
4 ounces chopped green chilies
10 3/4 ounces cream of celery soup (you won't taste it)
12 ounces evaporated milk

Steps:

  • Mix the last four ingredients together in a large, non-stick pot. I use my dutch oven.
  • DO NOT DRAIN any of the veggies. Dump the liquid in along with everything else.
  • Cube the velveeta and add to the canned ingredients.
  • Cook over low heat until the velveeta melts.
  • Stir often.
  • This makes a lot! But, it warms up great in the microwave.
  • Serve with chips or use to top enchiladas or even use in quesadillas.
  • Variation: Try adding some spicy ground meat or canned chili (with or without beans). Add other veggies like black olives or onion, too.

EASY QUESO

Categories     appetizer

Time 10m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 cups shredded Mexican blend cheese
1/2 cup salsa
1/4 cup pilsner beer
4 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature

Steps:

  • Add the cheese, salsa, beer and cream cheese to a large microwave-safe bowl and mix until combined. Microwave on high until the cheese is melted and the mixture is smooth and combined, 2 to 4 minutes. Stir once more before serving.

Tips:

  • For a smoother queso, blend it in a food processor or blender until it is completely smooth.
  • If you want a thicker queso, use less milk or cream. You can also add a thickening agent, such as cornstarch or flour.
  • To make a spicier queso, add more chili powder, cayenne pepper, or chopped jalapeños.
  • For a more flavorful queso, use a variety of cheeses. A good combination is to use a blend of cheddar, Monterey Jack, and pepper Jack cheeses.
  • To make a creamy queso, use a combination of milk and cream. You can also add sour cream or cream cheese.
  • To make a cheesy queso, use a combination of shredded and processed cheeses. Processed cheeses, such as Velveeta or American cheese, will help to make the queso smooth and creamy.
  • To make a dippable queso, use a combination of hard and soft cheeses. Hard cheeses, such as Parmesan or Romano cheese, will help to give the queso a crispy texture.
  • To make a spreadable queso, use a combination of soft cheeses. Soft cheeses, such as cream cheese or Brie cheese, will help to make the queso smooth and spreadable.

Conclusion:

Queso is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. Whether you are looking for a dip, a spread, or a sauce, there is a queso recipe that is perfect for you. With so many different variations to choose from, you are sure to find a queso that you will love.
