The Bomb Queso Dip!

"In my early years, I was known for making a plain old basic Queso Dip. I'm still asked to bring "Cheese Dip" often to parties, campouts, anywhere that certain friends will be. My recipe is never the same and it has evolved over the years....but here goes my chance to put it down on paper (or internet). By the way....please don't call it "Con" Queso Dip unless you are adding a noun to the name....like "Chili Con Queso"...its not just "Con Queso"....that's my OCD-ness :)"

    Wonderful!!! I made this with just a few changes. The two cheeses and fresh ingredients make all the difference. My family only knew Velveeta dip and was quite impressed with this variation. It was "The Bomb". No more old fashioned cheese dip for me. Thanks for posting.

<p>I am a pretty good home cook and a Food Network junkie. Every time I host an event or create a new dish, my confidence grows....I'm always testing new ideas and sometimes (I'm a nerd) that dreams in food.</p> <p>I was&nbsp;proud to have one of my recipes chosen as RecipeZaar's Recipe of the Day on 11/27/09 with my Turkey, Cranberry, &amp; Pesto Sandwich. &nbsp;I also had the opportunity to cook at the Aetna Healthy Food Fight competition in Los Angeles last summer - talk about pressure!</p>
