    I don’t know about you, but I’m not one to make eating better resolutions for the new year. Well, at least not in the middle of winter when all I want is some hot, comfort food 95% of the time. Granted, I should probably push back from my nightly routine of hot chocolate, but it’s just so perfect for those cold winter evenings.

    In true comfort food form, one of our favorite things around here is a good dip. We’re not super picky. As long as it’s creamy and delish and can be eaten on a chip, we’re down.

    A few years ago I broke away from our standard Rotel tomatoes & green chilies + Velveeta cheese dip and experimented with some white cheese queso. It take a little more work than opening a can of tomatoes, but the results are out of this world amazing. You’ll be making this for every party you’ve got this winter. Like the Super Bowl, probably. (Go Broncos!)

    Author: The Turquoise Home
    Recipe type: Appetizer
    Cuisine: Mexican
    Ingredients
    • 2 lbs. White Queso Cheese block. cubed
    • 1½ c. fresh salsa or pico de gallo (I get mine from the grocery deli section)
    • 1 c. fresh cilantro
    • 1 lime, juiced
    • 1 jalapeño, chopped (I use a holder like this to hold the jalapeño while I chop it, that way I don't get any pepper on my hands and risk rubbing the juice into my eye. Been there, done that.)
    • 1 tsp. cumin
    • 1 tsp. hot sauce
    • ½ c. cream
    • 1-2 cloves of garlic, minced
    Instructions
    1. Chop, cube and juice everything and combine in a large pot. Heat until melted together on a medium heat. Eat with tortilla chips. YUM! Now tell me how good that is?!

      You show whipping cream in the ingredient photo but not in written recipe. Do I use cream and if so how much?
