Chili Queso

Happy Friday!! : )

Garrett's birthday is this Monday so we are super excited to celebrate this weekend. We are going to the Saints Vs. Broncos game this Sunday!! SO SO EXCITED! Garrett's team is the Saints so I know he is pumped up about it. I can't wait!


Also, this week we had our first real snow! It was only 2 inches or so, but transformed our apartment complex into a winter wonderland for a day and a half. It's slowly melting now, sadly.




Anyways, I don't know about y'all, but Garrett and I eat at Chili's alot. And they have the yummiest queso! A couple of weeks ago I decided to try and make a copycat recipe at home and it turned out really delicious and really simple. Definitely worth a try!

What you need:

8oz of Velveeta Cheese
1 can of Chili (with or without beans)
Chips for dipping (Fritos are best!)

What to do:

Cut up the cheese into big chunks and put inside of a microwave safe bowl
Pour the chili on top.


Microwave for 1 and a half minutes and then stir.
 Keep doing this until all the cheese is melted and the chili and cheese are well mixed.




Very easy and very yummy! And especially good when football is on! : )

I hope you all are having a good Friday! It's almost the weekend! YAY!

  1. I can't believe you got snow! It's usually started to cool down at least by October but we are still in the 80's here. Fall is not happening for us. Enjoy the Birthday weekend.

    1. I love the snow too! It only lasted for one day and is now back in the 70's! I don't know if this queso tastes all that much like Chilis, I think it does but it has been a while since I have had any from there. Either way it is good!
