Rotel Cheese Dip with a Twist
At the store, choose the regular Velveeta then choose two cans of Rotel.You can use the regular Rotel, medium Rotel, or hot Rotel. (I use one can of “regular” and one can of “hot” Rotel)One block of Velveeta along with 2 cans of Rotel makes a pretty large bowl of dip, so if it's just for a few people, you may want to just do half the block and 1 can.
Ingredients:
• A block of Velveeta cheese
• 2 cans of Rotel tomatoes
• 1 Red Onion (diced fine)
• 1 Jalapeno Pepper (diced fine)
• 2 Ripe Tomatoes (seeded and chopped)
• 1/2 Cup Fresh Cilantro (stemmed and chopped)
• Kosher Salt
• 1 tsp Garlic Powder (optional)
• A knife & can-opener & a spoon
• A large bowl
• Frito Corn Chips or Chips of your choice
Instructions:
1 Cut your cheese up into blocks with your knife, and put them in your bowl.
2 Open the can or cans of Rotel and pour them in as well.
3 Microwave on high for about 3-4 minutes at a time, taking it out each time and stirring. Keep this up until the clumps are gone.
4 Add the fresh ingredients, onion, jalapeno pepper, cilantro, tomato, garlic powder (if desired) and stir.
5 Add one or two teaspoons of Kosher Salt, to taste. Very important do not leave out, it ties everything together.
6 Get your favorite chips out and enjoy. (I think Frito’s go best)
