Ingredients

  • 1 cup onion, chopped
  • 3 fresh tomatillos, chopped
  • 1 small fresh jalapeno, seeded and minced
  • 2 (10 ounce) cansrotel tomatoes and green chilies
  • 12 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 lb Velveeta Mexican cheese, cubed
  • 1 lb sharp cheddar cheese, grated
  • 14 cup salsa (I prefer the fresh salsa in the produce department.)
  • 1 (4 ounce) can green chilies, mild, chopped
  • 14 cup fresh cilantro, minced
  • 14 cup whole milk or 14 cup cream, to thin as needed

Method

  • Saute onion, tomatillos and jalapeno in butter until soft.
  • Add tomatoes, mashing any large pieces.
  • Add cumin, cheese, salsa, green chilies, cilantro, and cook on low heat until cheese is melted.
  • Stir often.
  • Add milk or cream as needed to achieve desired consistency.
  • Remember that the dip will thicken as it sits in the crockpot and as it cools.
  • Transfer queso to a small crock pot on "warm" setting.
  • Serve with tortilla chips.
