    Queso Dip

    Thick, cheesy and creamy, this queso is perfect for dipping. I use mild chilis and salsa, but if you like more heat, you can kick it up with medium-heat varieties. Serve it over eggs and omelets for breakfast or pasta with a sprinkle of bacon for a Mexican-American mac and cheese. —Kallee Krong-MCCreery, Escondido, California
