Guacamole

  1. 1

    Prepare the Avocados

    Cut the ripe avocados in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl.

    Mash the Avocados

    Using a fork or a potato masher, mash the avocados to your desired level of creaminess.

  3. 3

    Add Lime Juice

    Pour the lime juice over the mashed avocados to prevent browning and add flavor.

  4. 4

    Mix in Vegetables

    Add the finely chopped red onion, diced tomato, minced jalapeño, and chopped cilantro to the avocado mixture. Stir gently to combine.

  5. 5

    Season

    Sprinkle in the salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste. Mix until well combined.

Queso

    Combine Ingredients

    In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the shredded cheddar cheese, cream cheese, and milk.

  2. 7

    Add Diced Tomatoes

    Add the canned diced tomatoes with green chilies and minced jalapeño to the saucepan. Stir well to combine.

  3. 8

    Season

    Sprinkle in the garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. Stir until everything is well mixed.

  4. 9

    Melt the Cheese

    Continue to cook over low heat, stirring frequently, until the cheeses are fully melted and the mixture is smooth.

  5. 10

    Serve Warm
