Happy Cinco de Mayo! We LOVE Mexican food in our family and this recipe for Queso Fundido Con Chili a la Tequila is one that is really yummy and fun for a party or any family dinner. I have a confession to make – I have never been a queso fan. You see, all the ones I had tried before were made of what I refer to as “fake” cheese – processed cheese that I am just not fond of so I had always stayed away from it before. But then, this recipe from Hormels crossed my desk and I decided to give it a go. Mmmmmm mmmmmm! It has changed my mind about queso, that’s for sure! Just wait until you try it and you’ll know why I’m now a queso fan like the rest of my family.
