Blank Canvas Queso
From Anna Monette Roberts, POPSUGAR Food
Notes
You may substitute the can of green chiles for a 4-ounce can of Rotel tomatoes.
While this recipe is intended for the microwave, you can cook it stovetop or in a slow cooker.
Ingredients
- 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese
4 ounces smoked cheddar, finely shredded (I used a microplane [1])
1 (4-ounce) can fire-roasted diced green chiles
~3 tablespoons half and half
Directions
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine cream cheese, smoked cheddar, and fire-roasted diced green chiles.
- Microwave for about 4 minutes, stopping every minute to break up the cream cheese with a wooden spoon and stir the mixture. Microwave until heated through.
- Stir in half and half, 1 tablespoon at a time, until mixture resembles dip. Salt to taste, and return to the microwave to heat up if needed. Serve immediately with chips.
