This is the BEST queso I make. A little more trouble than Velveeta & salsa, but SO worth the effort. Hey...anything with bacon is better!
Ingredients:
4 slices bacon, diced
1/2 cup green onion, sliced thinly
2 tomatoes, peeled and chopped
4 ounce can chopped green chiles
1/2 cup white wine, or beer
3/4 pound monterey jack cheese, grated
2 tablespoons constarch
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, or 2 cloves fresh garlic
Directions:
1. In fondue pot, fry bacon until crisp. Remove and drain. Saute onion in bacon fat, add tomatoes and chilies. Stir in wine and bring to a boil. Toss cheese with cornstarch and garlic. Gradually stir cheese into wine mixture. Keep warm or re-warm as necessary if not using fondue pot or small crockpot.
2. Serve with tortilla chips.
