Spinach Con Queso

Submitted by Ms B.

"This is an adopted recipe that I have adjusted to include exact amounts for the ingredients. I used a pint of Canned Basic Salsa (Recipe #39094) when I prepared it and found that while it was flavorful, it wasn't spicy at all. You may want to add hot sauce, cayenne pepper or diced jalapenos if you like things kicked up a notch. I also melted my cheese in the microwave and stirred in the other ingredients before pouring into a mini crockpot for serving. You will want to keep an eye on it, if you serve it this way. The cheese can separate if it gets too hot in the crockpot."

Unbelievably absolutely amazing! I have been looking for a copy cat of ruby tuesdays for 10 plus years and this is it, my favorite appetizer ever. I make it for new years now every year and will pass down for generations to come!!

This was a awesome snack for my super bowl party! Dipped chips and veggies. I also made these chuck roast sliders and a spoonful of this queso on it made it to die for! Delish!

It's like you took two of my favorite dips and combined them! Thanks!

Easy and tasty. I added some diced jalapenos and a little hot sauce as the salsa I used was very mild.
