Today’s Best Recipe is Kraft’s Famous Queso Dip with a spin.
I have included the original recipe, but we like to Gussie ours up every now and again.
When it comes to food, my family doesn’t need a celebration. We can chow down. One of our favorites is chips and dips.
I love the ease of Kraft’s Famous Queso Dip Recipe for game night, movie night, cheering someone up, and just plain ol’ snacking.
It’s simple and requires just two ingredients (if you go with the original version), and when I come back in the room with a big bowl of it, my kiddos cheer!
My mouth is watering; it’s sooooooo good!
It’s the star of every tailgate, movie viewing party, and game night.
Queso might be the best dip out there with the creamy goodness of VELVEETA and RO*TEL’s zesty blend of tomatoes and green chilis.
Who am I kidding?
It IS the best dip.
It takes about 10 minutes from start to finish, including opening the can and cutting up the Velveeta.
I like to put my own spin on this easy recipe. Here’s how I do it:
Kraft’s Famous Queso Dip Recipe Ingredients:
- *(16 oz.) VELVEETA®, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- *1 can (10 oz.) RO*TEL Diced Tomatoes & Green Chilies, undrained
- 1 can chili, we like the kind with meat added.
- 1 can diced green chiles
*These are the only two ingredients you need to make the ORIGINAL Kraft Queso dip.
Kraft’s Famous Queso Dip Recipe Directions:
- COMBINE ingredients in a microwaveable bowl.
- MICROWAVE on HIGH 5 min. or until VELVEETA is completely melted and mixture is well blended, stirring after 3 min.
- CAUTION: Dish will be hot; use hot pads.
- For a double recipe: microwave on HIGH 8 minutes or until VELVEETA melts, stirring after 5 minutes.
Note: Drain 1 can of tomatoes if a thicker dip is preferred.
