Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups whole milk
Salt
1 teaspoon chipotle powder or smoked paprika
1 sack 10 ounces (2 cups) shredded Cheddar
1 cup store bought tomato salsa, your favorite brand and flavor
2 large carrots, peeled
1 sack blue corn tortilla chips, plain or flavored

Steps:

  • Heat a small pot over medium heat. Add butter and melt. Add flour to butter and cook 1 minute. Whisk in milk and season sauce with salt and chipotle powder or smoked paprika. Stir in cheese and melt. Thicken sauce 1 minute. Stir in salsa and remove from heat. Serve sauce from hot pot and return to stove, as necessary, to loosen.
  • Cut carrots in half then stand on end and cut thin strips. Cut strips across on an angle, forming 2 long triangles. Lightly salt the carrots. Pile chips into a bowl and tuck carrots in and around the chips. The blue and orange triangles are your "witches hats".
