Kt's Spinach Con Queso Recipe
Servings: 1
Ingredients
- 1 c. lowfat milk
- 2 1/2 lb shredded jalapeno monterey jack cheese
- 1 c. baby spinach finely minced
- 1 x 4-oz jar diced pimento well-liquid removed
- 1 c. finely diced yellow onion
- 1 c. finely diced tomato
Directions
- Over low heat, hot lowfat milk in a large, heavy pan (the heavier the pan, the less likely your mix will scorch).
- When lowfat milk is hot to the touch (after about 10 min), slowly stir in cheese. Wait for cheese to heat completely (about 1/2 hour), stirring occasionally, then add in remaining ingredients. Mix thoroughly and remove from heat. Mix is best when reheated in the microwave.
- Note: Don't attempt to make this recipe in a crockpot; the cheese won't heat correctly. Also, it's best to use a processed cheese. High-quality cheese becomes lumpy when it melts.
- Yield: 4 c.
