EASY QUESO DIP

Steps:

• Stovetop method: Bring 1 inch of water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Reduce the heat to medium-low and place a bowl inside the pot to create a double boiler. (The bowl should be big enough to rest above the rim of the pot without the bottom touching the water.) Add both cheeses, the half-and-half, garlic, jalapeño, and ground black pepper, then stir to combine. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the dip is creamy. Stir in the green chilies.
• Slow cooker method: Combine both cheeses, the half-and-half, garlic, jalapeño, and ground black pepper in the base of a slow cooker, and stir to combine. Cover and cook on high for 50 minutes, stirring once half-way through. Stir in the green chilies. Transfer to a serving bowl or reduce the temperature of the slow cooker to warm and keep covered until ready to serve.
• Top with diced tomatoes, cilantro, and sliced jalapeño. Serve immediately.

GRILLED POBLANO QUESO DIP

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat (400 degrees F -200 degrees C) and lightly oil the grate.
• Lightly spray or brush poblano peppers with olive oil. Cook peppers on the preheated grill, turning every couple minutes, until charred and softened, 5 to 8 minutes.
• Remove peppers from the grill and place in a large resealable plastic bag to steam, about 15 minutes. Peel off the charred skins. Discard seeds and chop peppers.
• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add flour and cook, stirring, about 1 minute. Add onion and cook for 1 minute more. Whisk in milk slowly and cook, stirring constantly, until slightly thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low and add Monterey Jack cheese, cream cheese, salt, paprika, pepper, red pepper flakes, and cayenne; whisk until the cheeses have melted and are blended in, about 5 minutes. Stir in chopped poblano peppers.

QUESO DIP

Steps:

• Top and serve: Once the vegetables are fully incorporated and warmed through, about 5 minutes, transfer the queso to a slow cooker. You can also serve it straight from the pan. Top with a generous serving of pico de gallo accompanied by warm corn tortilla chips or pretzel bites.
• Thin as needed: The queso will thicken as it sits. If you find it's getting too thick, whisk in a couple of tablespoons of whole milk to thin it. Serve it straight from the pan kept over low heat on your stove or transfer the queso to a slow cooker set on warm. Stir the queso frequently to prevent a skin from forming on the surface of the dip.
