Queso Dip

Queso Dip

EverydayCooked

Queso dip is a smooth, melted cheese sauce traditionally made with processed cheeses like American or Monterey Jack, blended with milk or cream to create a pourable consistency. This Tex-Mex staple often incorporates diced tomatoes, green chilis, or spices for added flavor, and relies on emulsifiers to prevent separation when heated. While rich in calcium and protein, it is typically high in saturated fat and sodium, making portion control important for health-conscious users.
