Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound white American cheese chopped into smaller pieces
  • 1 can diced green chilies 4.5 ounces, do not drain
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1/2 cup milk

Equipment

  • Crock Pot

Method
 

  1. Add the ingredients: In a 1.5-quart crock pot, combine the chopped white American cheese, green chilies (including their juices), milk, cumin, and garlic salt. Give everything a good stir.
  2. Cook low and slow: Set your crock pot to the low heat setting. Cover and cook until the cheese is fully melted, stirring every 10-15 minutes to ensure everything blends consistently.
  3. Adjust consistency: Once the cheese is melted and smooth, check the texture of the queso. If it’s too thick, add a splash of milk and stir until it reaches your desired consistency.
  4. Serve and enjoy: Turn your crock pot to warm and serve directly from it, or transfer the queso to a serving dish. Pair with tortilla chips, veggie sticks, or warm pretzels for dipping!

Notes

White American cheese is typically found in your grocery store's deli section but can be substituted with Queso Blanco Velveeta if unavailable. Customize the spice level by adding chili powder, jalapeños, or cayenne. Leftovers can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 5 days—just reheat with a splash of milk to restore creaminess. Try adding crumbled chorizo for a heartier variation!
