Steps:
- Add the processed cheese, Monterey Jack, Cheddar and canned tomatoes (along with the juice) to a medium saucepan or 10-inch cast-iron skillet (see Cook's Note) and turn the heat to medium. Cook, stirring frequently with a rubber spatula, until all the cheese has melted and the queso is smooth, about 5 minutes. Serve immediately with tortilla chips.
- To make the queso spicy, use hot diced tomatoes and green chiles, such as RoTel Hot, instead of the Original.
- Processed block cheese is crucial due to its meltability and what it adds to the queso's texture. Do not try to substitute other cheeses.

QUESO CHEESE SAUCE
This queso isn't so much a dip as it is a sauce. I use this to top my burritos, empanadas "Recipe #251992" and enchiladas. I also pour this cheese sauce all over my rice and beans, too!! Enjoy!
