White Queso Cheese Dip Recipe



Why it's taken me 32 years of my life to finally make my own queso, is so beyond me.  Seriously, what have I been doing this whole time? Well, finally...i did it and it's super easy to make. I have the delish recipe below so you can have a hot bowl of cheesy goodness in no time.


WHITE QUESO DIP

Ingredients:

  • 1 Tbsp Butter/Margarine
  • 1/4 cup Red Onion, diced
  • 1/4 cup Green Pepper diced
  • 12 oz White American Cheese (got slices from deli)
  • 4 oz Pepper Jack cheese shredded
  • 1/4-2/3 cup milk (I used 2%)
  • 1 Tomato - diced
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (you may want to use cilantro instead)
  • Pinch of Cayenne Pepper
  1. Heat the oil in a sauce pan. Cook the onion and pepper (med/high heat) until softened and reduce heat to medium-low.
  2. Add the shredded cheese and 1/4 cup of the milk. Stir, stir, stir until melted together 
  3. Add the tomatoes, parsley & cayenne to your liking
  4. Add more milk if you'd like a thinner consistency.
  5. Pour into a heat safe bowl and enjoy with tortilla chips!

The only pair of blue jeans I own, PYLO Gypsy Minor Bellbottoms in Creedence...oh how I love. These jeans are a dream! They feature a high waist, long inseam and mega bells. The trend is done right when the bell covers your footwear...done any other way and you'll look like your former self from the 2000's. We don't wanna go there.

Another huge trend for fall are maxi cardigans. This one has stylish bell sleeves and comes in a beautiful Marsala color (#heyPantonehey). Even though I've shut it in about 5 doors today, it's still my current fav. It's lovely to layer and creates a long sleek line with the body.
