Queso Dip Ingredients

Method

Queso Dip Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Start by gathering all your ingredients on a clean surface. Ensure that the Velveeta cheese and cream cheese are at room temperature to make melting easier.

  2. 2

    Melt the Cheeses

    In a medium saucepan over low heat, add the Velveeta cheese and cream cheese. Stir continuously until the cheeses are completely melted and smooth.

  3. 3

    Add Diced Tomatoes

    Once the cheeses are melted, add the can of diced tomatoes with green chilies (do not drain). Stir well to combine with the melted cheese.

  4. 4

    Season the Dip

    Add the minced garlic, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper to the cheese mixture. Mix thoroughly, allowing the flavors to meld together for about 2-3 minutes.

  5. 5

    Stir in Sour Cream and Green Onions

    Remove the saucepan from heat and gently fold in the sour cream and chopped green onions until well combined.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Transfer the queso dip to a serving bowl and serve immediately with tortilla chips for dipping.
