The Bomb Queso Dip! image

In my early years, I was known for making a plain old basic Queso Dip. I'm still asked to bring "Cheese Dip" often to parties, campouts, anywhere that certain friends will be. My recipe is never the same and it has evolved over the years....but here goes my chance to put it down on paper (or internet). By the way....please don't call it "Con" Queso Dip unless you are adding a noun to the name....like "Chili Con Queso"...its not just "Con Queso"....that's my OCD-ness :)
