I am a sucker for dip. One of my favorite appetizers to get when eating out is Queso blanco dip. I decided to make some at home this weekend and it turned out amazing!

From what I could find online, American Cheese (found in the deli) really is the way to go.  It creates a super creamy dip while the green chilies give this dip the perfect kick. This dip isn’t too spicy (my son loved it), but if you are weary of spice, just add half the amount of green chilies and omit the jalapenos.

My absolute favorite thing about this dip is that it is made in the crockpot!! Just dump your ingredients in and be on your way! I can’t tell you how many times I have burned Velveeta on the stove because I was getting other things ready.

I can tell you by how fast we ate this it would be a hit at any party! Queso Blanco Dip is the perfect addition to any game day celebration! It is football season after all!
