Queso

Instructions

1. Peel and finely chop onion. Finely chop jalapeño. If you would like your queso mild, remove seeds and membranes, or leave in if you want it spicier.
2. Grate colby jack and cheddar, and set aside.
3. Place a saucepan over medium heat and melt butter.
4. Add in onion, jalapeño, and garlic. Cook for 3-5 minutes, until onion is translucent.
5. Sprinkle flour over veggies and stir. Cook for 1 minute.
6. Slowly add milk while stirring.
7. Once milk is incorporated, add tomatoes and chiles, and stir.
8. Once sauce has thickened, turn off heat and add cheddar and colby jack cheese, one handful at a time, while constantly stirring.
9. Once all cheese has been incorporated, and is completely melted, add sour cream and stir until smooth.
10. If needed, add more milk, a little at a time, to achieve the consistency you desire.
11. Place pot back over low heat and stir until queso is warm and ready to serve.
12. Top with pico de gallo, if desired. Enjoy!
