TRADITIONAL QUESO FUNDIDO



Traditional Queso Fundido image

Easy appetizer or even light meal. Melted chihuahua cheese over fresh pico de gallo. Can buy fresh salsa or pico de gallo from deli. I prefer to put in warm torillas or can be served with tortilla chips. Meant to be eaten right out of the oven or shortly after, cheese will firm up if left out too long. Soooo Good!!
