Mexican Cheese Dip

Rate this topic


Guest guest

Recommended Posts

I've been craming for finals and all that talk about veggie tamales

the other day compelled me to make some cheese dip. I'm sure this

isn't an authentic recipe, so Alison or any1 else in Texas who has

an 'authentic' variation to this would be great.

 

Mexican Cheese Dip

8 thin slices American White Cheese

1/2 cup milk (i always use the non-fat in frig)

4-6 jalapeno slices from a jar

2 tsps jalapeno juice from jar

1 tsp fresh chopped cilantro (optional)

 

In pot or crockpot heat the milk on low until warm but not boiling.

Add the cheese a couple slices at a time. Finely chop the jalapeno

slices, add to the pot along with the jalapeno juice. If using a pot,

stir constantly to prevent burning and sticking to the bottom.

When serving, garnish on top with finely chopped cilantro if desired.

(I love cilantro and think anything Mexican-like should have it, but

the cilantro is definitely not a needed ingredient.)

*I use a jar of mild jalapenos, the real thang is just too much for

me. If I was using reg. jalapenos, I'd use only about 2-3 slices and

omitt the juice entirely. But hey if you love the heat, go for it.

** For some reason I can only get American White cheese from behind

the deli in the grocery store. I prefer asking them to cut it very

thin b/c it melts quicker.

That sounds yummy! Down here in Texas...We have an

even simpler recipe that's about as TexMex authentic

as it gets....

 

16 oz velveeta

1 can rotel (use hot or mild)

 

Place in crockpot and heat until melted. The

leftovers can be thinned with milk when reheated.

 

Warmly,

Allison

Velveeta! Hahaaa...too much. Does make some good dip tho. I think I

was expecting something like " the entire family goes out at dawn.

Still moist with morning dew, we hand pick the tomatoes and

jalapenos... " , heheee.

Oh yeah the stuff is delicious, the inventor of Velveeta should be

considered as famous as Edison and Einstein. Velveeta is why I could never

become a Vegan. Just kidding of course.

OMGosh, LMAO, Mr. Wing Lee should concentrate his efforts more on cereal

than cheese, because he is definitely coo-coo for cocoa puffs!

 

~ P_T ~ , how in the world did you come across that? I love those whacked

out things.

 

Cheers,
