Spinach Con Queso Ingredients
Method
Cooking Directions
Prepare the Spinach
In a large skillet over medium heat, wilt the fresh spinach until just tender. This should take about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
Mix the Cheeses
In a mixing bowl, combine the pepper jack cheese, cream cheese, sour cream, diced tomatoes (with juices), garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well blended.
Combine Ingredients
Fold the wilted spinach into the cheese mixture until evenly incorporated.
Heat the Mixture
Transfer the mixture to a baking dish or oven-safe skillet. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 20 minutes, or until bubbly and golden on top.
Serve
Remove from the oven and serve hot with tortilla chips on the side for dipping.
