Easy-Cheesy Slow Cooker Queso
We had a back-to-school BBQ last week. There were lots of food items to choose from, but unsurprisingly, it was the easy-cheesy queso that took center stage. This is a recipe that I assume everyone knows about but surprisingly, at our party, several people asked me how I made it.
I was shocked. I have been eating queso for what seems like forever and this recipe just seemed to be the one that everyone I grew up with used. It is simple and easy and only requires two ingredients - SCORE! Now that college football season is gearing up to begin, I will be pulling out this recipe again and again.
It goes like this.
(I have seen this recipe doctored in all kinds of ways. Feel free to add taco meat, hot sausage, or onions to the mix!)
