I’ve always been a sucker for all the appetizers at parties. I often times find myself overdoing it parties because I often times will sit right next to the appetizers and socialize/eat. It probably is a bad habit, but it definitely leaves me satisfied with lots of yummy food and I leave the party knowing I got some great socializing done because most people make a few trips to the food bar during the party.
One of those appetizers I have always loved is Queso, especially if it’s homemade. Not much beats dipping a chip into some ooey, cheesy goodness. I love this white queso dip because of all the different cheese flavor you get in one dip. Full of my three favorite white cheeses and packed with tomatoes and a kicked of jalapenos, this is a dip that my husband and I both were obsessing over.
This spicy white queso dip is definitely on my list of appetizers for this upcoming super bowl.
