Spicy Crock Pot Queso Cheese Dip Recipes

SLOW COOKER QUESO RECIPE

Steps:

• Spray a large slow-cooker with nonstick cooking spray and set the temperature to HIGH.
• Add the tomatoes, milk, lime juice, cheeses and cilantro; mix well.
• Place the lid on top of the slow-cooker.
• Place the oil, onions and jalapeno peppers in a medium skillet set over medium heat. Sauté the vegetables until tender and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
• Add cumin, red pepper flakes and chili powder; stir well and cook an additional 30 seconds, stirring continuously.
• Add the sautéed vegetables to the cheese mixture and stir well.
• Replace the lid leaving it slightly ajar. Stir the cheese several times until the cheese is completely melted, about 30 minutes.
• Lower the temperature to WARM and stir about every 15-20 minutes. If needed, add a little evaporated milk if it thickens during warming.
• Serve with your favorite chips/vegetables/crackers.

SPICY CROCK POT QUESO (CHEESE DIP)

Steps:

• Crumble sausage and brown in skillet.
• Place Velveeta and Rotel into a crock pot and heat on high.
• Once sausage is browned, add it to the crock pot.
• Continue heating on high, stirring occasionally, until cheese has melted.
• Turn heat down to low, get out the tortilla chips and beer, and enjoy the ballgame.
• This recipe works as a sauce as well.
• If you are having a large get-together, I recommend doubling the recipe, it's usually the life of the snack buffet.

CROCK POT SPICY BEEF QUESO DIP

Steps:

• In a large skillet, brown the ground beef and onion over medium heat until the meat is no longer pink.
• Drain and add jalapenos, water, and taco seasoning. Increase the heat to medium-high to cook, stirring frequently, until the liquid is evaporated. Remove from heat.
• In a 4 to 6 quart slow cooker add the prepared beef mixture, Velveeta, and Rotel.
• Stir well and cook on low until cheese is completely melted, 1 to 2 hours.
• Keep the slow cooker set to warm to serve during a party, giving the mixture a good stir before serving.

WICKED SPICY CROCK POT CHEESE DIP

Steps:

• Start browning the sausage in a skillet, breaking it into small pieces as you would for tacos.
• Cut the cheese into cubes and throw them in the crock pot with the 2 cans of DRAINED Hot Rotel. You can go ahead and turn it on to get the melting process started.
• When the sausage is fully cooked, drain the fat and add it to the crock pot.
• Prepare yourself and your kitchen for cutting hot chillis/peppers. You do not want to touch anything that you dont need to, ESPECIALLY the cover to the crock pot, because it will get on everyone so just leave it off. Wash your hands several times afterwards.
• Chop/dice the jalapenos fairly well, and the habeneros VERY well. Add to crock pot. As long as you leave about 2 hours for the peppers to cook in the cheese, the actual pepper pieces will not be much spicier than the dip itself.
• Stir occasionally, and implement step 7 as needed.
• The salsa is a trick I use for any cheese dip. Because you've used fresh peppers and drained the rotel, the dip will be thick. The salsas primary role is thickness control. You can always thin out a dip, but it takes a long time to thicken one out. Just add a spoon full at a time until it's just right. After it sits out for a while it might need more.
• Throw in something new and let me know! I think some beans would go in nicely, or some chili.
