Everyone says the same thing when they first try this dip. They tell me, “the is the The Best Chile con Queso EVER”! I kid you not, it’s the number one dish people ask me to bring when we going to a party. Luckily, it’s also the easiest thing to bring to party too.
Whether, I’m taking this dip to a party or hosting a big SuperBowl event at my house, it’s always the first thing devoured…I never have leftovers. I think part of what everyone loves is that I don’t just bring a big ol’ bag of chips to go along with it.
When I partnered with José Olé to share my favorite way to serve up this snack, it was a no brainer. I always bring a big platter of taquitos to go with my chile con queso. Everyone goes crazy because I don’t just serve up chips with my dip…although adding those beautiful blue corn chips sure does look pretty.
One word of caution is to watch out for double dippers. Oh yes…they will come out of the woodwork if you aren’t careful. The dip is that dang good! So dip away, but don’t wait too long because it will be gone before you know it.
The Best Chile con Queso (Slow Cooker Recipe)
This cheesy warm dip is always the most requested party appetizer. Because it's a slow cooker recipe, the dip can be kept warm through the entire party.
Ingredients
- 1 lb block processed cheese, cubed
- 1/2 lb colby cheese, grated
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 (4 ounce) cans diced green chilies (or 8 oz fresh/frozen hatch green chiles)
- 2 tablespoons salsa
- 1 (10 ounce) can evaporated milk
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a slow cooker. Cook on high, stirring frequently, until melted and combined, 1-2 hours depending on your slow cooker's power.
- Maintain on low setting to keep cheese melted and party friendly. Serve with tortilla chips, taquitos, tacos, and your other favorite nacho dippers and toppings.

We brown sausage, drain it and add to the cheese as well as a can of Ranch Style Beans. Always Rotel Tomatoes but I also like to add green chilies. YUM! Having this Super Bowl Day.

This is almost like my infamous Queso, but I use cream of mushroom soup and no salsa. And in New Mexico it is a sin to use canned chile. 🙂 I love Queso though..ugh, I need to go buy some Velveeta!
Debbi Does Dinner Healthy says

Michelle says
I used to eat a version of this for breakfast with my college roommate! Should I be blushing right now? We used ro-tel tomatoes w/ green chiles. I’ll have to try this one, though, b/c I love green chiles. Ours didn’t have evap milk either. I imagine that gives a nice, silky texture. Thanks for the memories!
